10 Ways to tell Kids " I Love You"

No matter how old and how mature our kids are, they are never too old to be told how much we love and appreciate them. Here are 10 ways to do it!

1. Make your home a place of safety, acceptance and love.
2. Build feelings of self-worth by showing your kids how they are special and unique.
3. Offer opportunities to learn and succeed.
4. Make sure your kids eat healthy foods, exercise regularly and get enough sleep.
5. Spend time with your kids. Talk, laugh, play and enjoy each other.
6. Protect your kids. Make their safety your top priority.
7. Acknowledge, praise and celebrate your kid´s successes. Don´t criticize when they try but fail.
8. Set limits to make them feel secure and to teach them responsibility.
9. Make a hug, a squeeze, a loving smile an everyday occurance.
10. Tell them you love them at least once a day.
