Take time to be thankful

There are many things parents can do to teach a child how to show gratitude in daily life. For example, let children collect food. Have them call their aunts, uncles, grandparents and friends, ask for usable canned food, gather as much as they can and donate the goods to a food bank. There are many individuals who will benefit from the gift. Source: Dr. Lesly Devereaux, author, motivational speaker, professional and personal development coach
