"Gratitude Circle": An Evening Ritual Every Family With Children Should Follow
Do you have children? Then be sure to create a family tradition called "Gratitude Circle"!
It is about observing a very simple evening ritual: all family members must gather in one room and talk.
Everyone should tell what they are grateful to their loved one for.
For example, a son needs to remember how his mom and dad helped him today, and parents should list the good deeds the boy has done since the beginning of the day.
It is convenient to combine the ritual with dinner.
Why You Should Follow the Gratitude Circle Family Tradition
Yes, the ritual is quite simple. However, it is incredibly effective.
Firstly, the child learns to be grateful and notice the efforts of mom, dad, grandparents, brothers and sisters.
Secondly, the child receives praise for his own worthy actions. This has a positive effect on his self-esteem and makes the child more motivated.
Thirdly, the child acquires an important skill - to notice the positive and not dwell on the negative.
So, an evening “gratitude circle” is a simple way to strengthen your family and make your children happy.
