Making one with your kids is not only easy but can also be an incredibly rewarding experience. Grab any glass jar (or box – just make sure it’s big enough to hold lots of memories!) and let your kids unleash their creativity by decorating it. Whether it's using colourful paper, glitter, or drawings, personalising the jar makes it even more special.
Fosters gratitude: By focusing on the good things that happen each day, your kids learn to appreciate the positives in their lives. It's a simple yet powerful way to learn how to be grateful for the small things.
Creates lasting memories: The jar becomes a time capsule of happy memories. As the days and weeks go by, the jar fills up with notes of positivity. When you open it in the future, it's like reliving those moments, creating awesome memories for your family.
Promotes family bonding: Decorating the jar together is a fun and creative family activity. It's an opportunity to sit down with your kids, share stories, and talk about the happy moments that happen every day.
Boosts self-esteem: Encourage your kids to write down their own achievements or things they are proud of. This boosts their self-esteem and confidence. When they see their accomplishments in the jar, it serves as a constant reminder of their capabilities and strengths.
Teaches positive reflection: The act of writing down positive moments teaches kids to reflect on their day. It's a chance for them to think about what went well, no matter how small, and focus on the good stuff, rather than the things that might not have gone so well.
Eases stress and anxiety: Life can be challenging, especially for kids. Reading through uplifting notes can be a source of comfort, reducing stress and anxiety.
Simple and sustainable: Creating a Positive Things Jar doesn't require expensive materials or elaborate planning. It's a simple, sustainable, and ongoing project that can fit into your daily routine.
