Some of our fondest memories revolve around simple family traditions we repeat over and over again: sleeping under the newly decorated Christmas tree, reading by flashlight at the annual summer camping trip or eating Uncle John’s famous chili. Lessons for Little Ones, by Once Upon a Family, will help weave family values into your holiday traditions and everyday life, thus creating powerful associations between wonderful memories with family and the values that we cherish.
Build character in your children by proactively equipping them with the tools they need to make decisions in their everyday life. When you focus on honesty in our October Lesson, for example, you are helping your child know what the right thing to do is when next faced with an important decision. We all know that lectures after a bad decision is made usually fall on deaf ears. Let this tool that you use together as a family spark the conversations you want to have to ensure your child knows how his/her family stands on this value.
Once Upon a Family's Lessons for Little Ones consists of twelve beautifully designed and content-rich Lesson Cards, one for each month, created with today’s busy family in mind. Each lesson focuses on developing positive character using a simple, do-able and easy-to-follow format. While these lessons are geared toward 3 to 10 year olds, make no mistake! Younger ears are absorbing as well as older ears who may already think they know it all! Parents can even revisit their commitment to each value every month.
Lessons for Little Ones comes complete with easy to read descriptions, a fun activity to do together at home, an interactive, thought-provoking recipe to create a scrumptious treat and so much more. These attractive free-standing Lesson Cards will no doubt become a favorite to display on a fireplace mantel, bookshelf or desk. There’s even a place on each card to display a family tradition photo.
