Today’s Parenting Tip:

DECIDE:        It is never too early to learn about work.

PRACTICE:   Read a story to your child today.

Talk about the occupations in the story. (For example, a parent, doctor, farmer, teacher, superhero.)

Talk about what responsibilities were part of each occupation and how a person can learn to do those things.

Remember that in today’s world, children will likely have many occupations in their lifetime.

Today’s Parenting Tip was inspired by our featured picture book, MR. ZINGER’S HAT.  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.)
