Plant the Seeds of Gratitude in Your Preschoolers

“Gratitude carries with it an abundance of positive outcomes in social-emotional learning—and it plays a critical role in happiness and health. So, laying early foundations for young children to develop and practice these skills is important.” —from the article “Small but powerful steps to build a sense of gratitude,” found on the Care for Kids website.

Be sure to check out the article to find lots of other helpful information and many suggestions for teaching gratitude to young children. My book Thank You for Me would also be a great way to extend the learning fun.
