After the "season of giving" comes the mindful time to share your thanks.
A thank you note/text/email at any age is a kind acknowledgement of the time and thoughtful gesture from the gift-giver to you, your child, or your family. (This would also include any gift of time that was shared over the holiday season as we noted in December that "spending time on your loved ones, or WITH them is the greatest gift of all." )
A snow day could be a PERFECT day to hand make thank you notes like the ones below & the link from the skiptomylou website includes free printables for simple notes for any age.
We try to take every opportunity to further develop our best PantherPride behaviors- at any age! A great article about mindful gratitude from Nemours KidsHealth speaks to how developing an attitude of gratitude can be good for us because of the great effects our positive emotions have on our brains.
As part of our District goals, we will continue to share mindful reminders from our SEL Toolbox. #BeingMindful #PalmyraStrong #MindfulMondaylove #MindfulHabits #homemadeholidays #snowdayfun #MindfulGratitude
