10 Positive Messages to Tell Your Child Before School

We all love to hear and say "I love you" to our loved ones. I am pretty sure that my spouse of more than 30 years knows that I love him, but I still find the need to say it. By sharing and repeating my feelings, I reinforce them both to myself and to him.


Repetition of positive messages is crucial!


It reinforces the ideas and beliefs being communicated, helping shape a child's self-perception and worldview over time. Consistently hearing positive affirmations can boost a child's self-esteem and confidence, encouraging them to internalize positive attributes and believe in their abilities.


Here are some examples you can use to positively support and encourage your child:

 

1. I believe in you.


2. What you think matters.


3. Be the friend you have always wanted.


4. Make good choices.


5. It’s OK to feel more than one emotion.


6. You have a kind soul.


7. You can make a difference in the world.


8. A new day means new possibilities.


9. It's normal to feel a bit scared sometimes.


10. You are loved.
