4 Ways to Show Your Children You Love Them
Children can be wild and rambunctious at times, but they still need to know that Mom and Dad love them all the same. How often do you tell your children you love them? How often do you do little things to show them they are loved? Here are some simple tips you can use:
1. Write a love note. Kids love mail. A simple, quick and easy way to show your child you love her is to write her a love note. A message as simple as “I love you!” or “Hope you have a wonderful day at school today!” is enough to make your child feel loved by you.
2. Play a fun board game together. Most children also enjoy playing board games. This is a really terrific way to bond and connect with your child. Making it a family affair can truly bring the entire family unit together as a team and create a deeper connection and sense of love in your children.
3. Ask about their day. Kids love to talk to their parents about their day. When school is in session, they love sharing what they learned. As your children grow older into pre-teens and teens, encourage them to share without being overly adamant about it. Just knowing that you are there to listen often means more than them saying anything to you.
4. Say THANK YOU. Kids are often taken by surprise when a parent says, “Thank you” for a job well-done. Surprise your child by doing so when he/she does something great. You’ll be surprised at how far a simple word of thanks will go.
