#ParentingWin

Parenting is tough! Sometimes it can be difficult to know if what you’re doing is the right thing. That is why it is so important to celebrate every #ParentingWin. What’s a #ParentingWin? You know, those little moments when you feel like you’ve done something right as a parent. Those small victories that have you saying to yourself, “Self, you’ve earned that Venti Iced Carmel Macchiato!” Those winning moments that earn the #ParentingWin hashtag on your social media feed.  Wins like getting your kids to bed without too much fuss. Wins like getting the crew to school on time (maybe even with breakfast first!). Wins like having the entire family together for a meal. Even if it’s take-out. Wins like those precious few seconds of quiet time with your kid when you have a chance to hug them and tell them you love them. They might even say it back. That’s a #ParentingWin.  All month long we’ll be celebrating every #ParentingWin; big and small. We’re so excited about every #ParentingWin it’s even the theme of our 170th-anniversary celebration! You can celebrate with us online by following along on Facebook and Twitter and sharing your favorite #ParentingWin or by joining us on June 25th at the American Sign Museum for our Annual Meeting and 170th Anniversary Celebration.  Send us an email with your favorite #ParentingWin to marketing@beechacres.org and we will select a parent at random to win a $10 Starbucks Gift card.

Character Strength Summer Activities for June!

Summer vacation is here! Are your kids already bored to tears? We’ve got you covered with some easy, fun summer activities that you can do each week. The best part is these activities allow you to recognize and build on your child’s strengths. If you haven’t already taken the VIA Survey of Character Strengths, you can get started here. Then you can download and print this month’s activity sheet and work on recognizing your child’s strengths all summer long. For June, we’ll focus on the strengths of bravery, mindfulness, love of learning, hope, love, appreciation of beauty, fairness, and judgment.
