Fun Family Tip of the Week
As a family, go above and beyond in helping someone out. Give someone a "great day." Maybe you have a neighbor with young children. You can give her a break by preparing a meal for her family or volunteering your family for a night of babysitting. Point out times when your child goes above and beyond. Praise him/her for these actions!Resources
