Remember that a thank you letter for her help doing
the washing or tidying her bedroom will show her that what she
does matters to you. Love needs to be nurtured actively. It must
be shown as well as felt.
Children need physical security. That means both the physical
contact of hugging and a safe environment in which to grow. Say
you need a hug when you feel depressed and let her know it makes
you feel better.
Love and security are the basis for progression and self esteem. Without the feelings of love and safety your child will not be
able to enjoy the activities and ideas which we offer for you
to share together.
