Teach kids mindfulness and positive thinking, by bringing it into their daily routine
This 5 minute daily gratitude journal is a brilliant way to encourage children to practice gratitude, mindfulness and positive thinking - by incorporating it into their daily routine
This would be a great activity to do at bedtime and shouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes - making it something that is manageable to do every day.
Each day has a new sheet to fill in with...
The date at the top.A kindness tracker, to track your kind acts of the day A section to share your mood for the day, circling the appropriate emoji.A section to write three things you're thankful for that day.A section to share a memorable thought of the day.Then there is another page to the right with...
A section at the top to write/draw/doodle... whatever you like The "awesome list," a place to tick off some positive actions you've taken that day.The "star of the day." Write in the star, the name of the person that's made your day better todayThis journal is a great size at 6 x 9 inches and 120 pages, the ideal size to fit in any school or college bag. It has a soft matte cover, with quality interior pages.
While there is a good amount of space to write and draw in each day, your child can use as much or as little of the space as they like.
As each page has a blank date, there is no pressure to write in it every day, but when they can fit it into their routine.
Not only is it a great notebook to look back on and remember what positive things have happened on a given day, it's also a great way to log and take notice of the little things, that we so often forget about.
Going to bed for the day with positive thoughts in our mind, is a great way to complete the day.
Learning this habit early on in life, can help children manage their feelings later on, to feel more grateful for what they have and to practice self-reflection.
Whether you want to get this for your own child, students, or relatives - it would make a thoughtful gift
This would also be a useful support aide for anyone who struggles to understand their feelings - including those with an autism spectrum condition, Aspergers, ADHD, anxiety and depression
