Hello, little friends and big friends! I’m Pippin the Penguin, and I’m thrilled to share a sneak peek of my upcoming book, Raising Grateful Kids with Pippin the Penguin: A Christian Guide to Teaching Gratitude. 🌟
In our fun-filled journey, we’ll discover how to teach, bond, and play in just 5 minutes a day! Each chapter is filled with fun activities that promote virtue building, educational fun, and cherished parent-child bonding. One delightful activity is creating a Gratitude Jar, where we can drop in little notes of what we’re thankful for—like family, friends, and our beloved plushies.
The author of this book is reminded of her grown son and his wife, who proudly display their childhood plushies on their bed. These treasured teddy bears serve as a reminder of simpler times and the values they learned while growing up, just like the lessons in this book.
