What you will do and learn:
In this activity, you will think about all the reasons you love the child and share those reasons with them.
Communicating how you feel out loud is a way to show the child that you love them unconditionally and
will help the child understand their self-worth. When you build up the child with encouragement, it will help
them be able to manage big feelings or hard days.
