Family Traditions Help Children Feel Secure

Parenting Tips for Your 45-46 Month Old Child

Do you have special traditions in your family like a favorite food for a birthday dinner, special activities for Thanksgiving, or a traditional religious activity? These special things bring families together. They make precious memories.

Your child loves to celebrate holidays. Plan special family times that your child can look forward to. Let children have a job to get ready. Coloring Easter eggs or making Grandmother’s birthday present are projects she is sure to remember in years to come. These family traditions give both children and adults a sense of belonging. They help us know who we are and where we came from. This feeling of security is important to your preschooler.
