Children learn to be thankful when they understand that other people dont have all that they do. Parents can set good examples by helping others with donating clothing to a shelter or a church, helping in soup kitchens, or volunteering at a veterans association. Children should be taught to share and get along with others as well as learning to be considerate of others. Children should also be taught to be thankful for people and not just things. When children are taught to be thankful, they will be less likely to be self-absorbed.
Express to your child that you are proud of them when they show an act of kindness. Also teach them the important phrase thank you. Thank you can go a long way but true gratitude is shown through appreciation. Being thankful is an emotion that will help a person be compassionate and promote a cheerful lifestyle!
