Pay attention to nutrition. Nutrition makes a big difference in how kids grow, develop and learn. Provide foods from several food groups at each meal and offer foods that are less processed, such as whole grain breads and cereals, fresh fruits and vegetables. Ask your health care provider for suggestions. Make your children feel loved and important.
Children develop a sense of self-worth early in life from their parents.
Listen to what your children say, and assure them that they are loved and safe. Hug your children every day and tell them they are special and what you admire about them.
