Today’s Parenting Tip:

Decide:      You know what makes a great party.

Practice:    Today, think about the best parties you have been to. What did you like best about them? Were there any things you wish would have been different? Share your memories with your child.

If you enjoyed your event, celebrate that you met your goal – to enjoy the day even if it was not “perfect” in every way.

Today’s Parenting Tip was inspired by our featured picture book, CLEVER JACK TAKES THE CAKE.  Read the book to a child in your life each day as a reminder of what you are deciding and practicing that day.

Come back each day for another good parenting decision and how to practice it. (Each day’s activity will also be posted on the Daily Parenting Tips page for easy access.)
