💡 Parent Moves: Making Memories 💡

Life is a portfolio of memories.


School is a memory that continues to build into the life of your little one. Consider buying a yearbook, so they can memorialize these years, with these people, during these times. Plus, they bring them to school and have all their friends sign them. It's a big deal.


Also, what memories are you creating at night, on the evenings, during breaks? Have you thought about the portfolio you're creating for your little ones? What plans are you making to create beautiful memories ahead?

Talk to your little one about courage

The guides below help you have great family conversations about courage. If we don't talk about this at home, our little ones may not know that you value it and see how courage has helped your life. One way to think about Courage is “choosing what is helpful, right, and kind even when it is hard or scary.” Courage can look a little different for everyone.
