1. Talk about what happened all day

Share little things with your children, like telling Mom, what you do, what TV shows you watch when your child is at rest, and so on. In addition, you should also ask her to share her activities throughout the day. Keeping communication between families helps everyone get closer and let everyone understand how they feel about each other. Talk about small things, like the funny jokes you've heard or fond memories of your family.

1. Focus on the positive, not the negative

When sharing, focus on the positive, like things you are grateful for. If one family member has a bad day, you must know and let him understand that not all days are just as bad, and things will always get better in the days that follow. Focusing on the positive will make the children feel happier and grateful that he has a loving and supportive family.

1. Learn to say "thank you"

Most people do not simply say "thank you". Always have gratitude for everything, even for the little things. Teach children to thank janitors, security guards, waiters, shop staff and tell the child that he should be grateful for the services that others have provided.

Parents should also teach children to always be polite and appreciative of everyone around them, especially people who do not know children. Acknowledgments can really change a person's day.

1. Be an example for children

The best way to teach children about life lessons is to run them on their own. For example, when vacationing activities are so fun, Mom and family can try to send a thank-you message to others to let them know that you appreciate them and that you are grateful for them. Mom will have a new appreciation for life and start paying attention to all the little things that Mother and child should be grateful for.
