Write a different Letter to Santa this Year

You know how all letters begin: » Dear Santa, I’ve been good this year and I want….«.

Make it somehow differrent this year. Help the child explain why he thinks he’s been good. Let him describe this passing year in a really positive way.

What did he achieve? What did he learned? What did he accomplished? What did he do to others? Who did he help?

Together find positive events, when he was really happy or excited. When was he most proud of himself? What activities did he enjoy the most with his friends? When did the family have the best time?

You can even encourage some words about gratitude. What moments, people and things is he grateful for, that was in his life this year?

And finally, of course, let him ask for his wish. But again, make it more profound and help your kid describe everything he wants for himself in the coming year. What would he like to be? What would he like to accomplish? Where would he like to go?

This way the letter to Santa will not only express his demands for a certain material thing (toy, electonics, …), but it will give him an insight about all the great things he already have in life and he will certainly see his future in broader perspective.

Before the letter is sent, copy it and put somewhere you all can see it. It will be a great reminder throughout the whole 2011 to be and have what he wished for.

Christmas gift suggestions:

To your enemy, forgiveness. 
To an opponent, tolerance. 
To a friend, your heart. 
To a customer, service.  
To all, charity. 
To every child, a good example.
To yourself, respect.

The last month of the year just started. It’s filled with expectations for something new, better, bigger. But too often we got caught in the shopping frenzy, being bombarded by all the sales and special offers and promotions. And being stressed out by the pressure from our kids, family and friends to buy that perfect gift, to fulfill their biggest wish. Not to mention the preparation and cooking for the Christmas and New Year Eve.

Why don’t you make it peaceful and calmer this year?

3 Worst Words You Can Say to Your Child

3 Worst Words You Can Say to Your Child

Can you imagine what they are? No, I don’t mean cursing or calling him names. Those words that I have in mind are actually really polite, can be even nice and well-meaning, but they are deadly.

They will not kill your child, of course, but they will kill his ambition, his dreams and his motivation. And those are the things that we as a parents need to empower. What would happen to your child, when he grows up and find himself in the life with no future, no motivation, no inspiration and nothing to look after? He might just be dead as well.

And what are those 3 words?

Meet our Zdravko

Meet our Zdravko

* the name Zdravko means someone who heals:) (and Medved means the bear)

Few months ago, new teddy bear stepped into our homes. While working with EFT and the Medved Zdravko non-profit organization, it was time to get our own Tappy Bears. The kids love them and even I like to cuddle one. And because I promised Tina to make a “real” interview with her about our new toy, here it is (unedited and as it happened):

Alenka: Tina, tell us a litle bit about yourself.
Tina: I am 10 years old and I love nature and animals. I attend 5th class. I also have one sister and two bunnies.
Alenka: You are here today with me, because I know you have a very special toy, named Tappy Bear. How did you hear about it?
Tina: My mum told me about it. It helps children if they are scared or hurt.

Does Your Child Have a Role Model?

Does Your Child Have a Role Model?

You know, someone he looks up to. Someone he admires his characteristics, his attitude and his (super) powers. It can be a person, fantasy creature, movie or cartoon character or even an animal.

What is important is that he finds something good and noteworthy in him/it and he wants to possess the same qualities.

Encourage your kid to find his own role model or several of them. Too often we, the parents put down the power of the role models. When we say things like ”Don’t be silly, don’t act like that, you are not a superman.” we are actually putting down all the positive sides of that role model.

Instead you should help your kids to find a positive role model. By emphasising positive qualities and encouraging thinking like a super hero we are giving our kids the power to think outside the box. When the kid personifies his role model, he is adopting the thinking and behaving of that superhero.
