How it works
Noticing good things and saying thank you can help us feel better.
We can say thank you, write it down, or make a card.
Some days are simply hard, and that is okay. Being thankful is noticing, not pretending.
Worked examples
A hard day with one good thing
- Kit's new kite blows into a tall tree, and he feels sad and cross.
- That is okay, and the feeling is allowed to stay.
- Bun, Rex and Dot come to help, without anybody asking them.
A gratitude jar
- Kit says thank you to Bun, Rex and Dot.
- He writes, my friends helped me get my kite, on a paper slip.
- The slip goes plop into the jar, and on a hard day he can read the slips again.
A thank you card
- Kit folds a card and draws a sun with a big smile.
- Inside he writes, thank you for making my toast every morning.
- His grown-up says, that made my whole day.
