4. Provide opportunities for children to practice caring and gratitude
Why: Practice is key to forming a habit, and studies show that children who express gratitude are happier, healthier and more compassionate individuals.
How: Give them responsibilities around the house. Expect them to help and praise when they go above and beyond these expectations. Talk to them about the concept of caring. What is caring and what is not? Express gratitude routinely together.
