Looking forward is exciting as we consider all the possibilities, but sometimes we need to reflect on the past and dwell on how far we have come, and all the things that have made us who we are today.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The same is true of our preschoolers, and it is important for them to remember the sweet memories of yesteryear. Here are two ways that we can help our children reflect on the past year and all the memories made together:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What was your favorite memory of 2019?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ask your child this, and engage them in conversation. Get those thinking wheels turning, and fill them in on any details that they might be missing. Share your favorite memory with them because sometimes the best memories are made just in everyday conversation as we share our hearts with one another.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Look through old pictures and watch old home videos.<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is a wonderful way to bring back memories through visual means. As we\u2019ve heard, a picture is worth a thousand words. Looking through pictures and videos is likely the best way to help your child remember all the things they did in 2019. Look through pictures of holidays, birthdays, or family vacations, and ask them what they remember about the scene that was captured. \u201cDo you remember when we went fishing at the lake? What was your favorite part about that day?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reflecting on the past is encouraging to little ones because they can see how much they have grown and how much they have learned through the years. It is also a great way to grab ahold of the time that you have together, and to make intentional effort to stop and make time to see just how amazing your little one is. It seems like we look up, and they\u2019re already grown, so maybe we just need to take the time to look up a little bit more often.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you enjoyed this blog and want to read more, click below for our blog from last month!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/eagle-springs\/2019\/12\/10\/give-your-kids-the-gift-of-gratitude\/\">Give Your Kids the Gift of Gratitude<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Want to learn more about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/eagle-springs\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Kids \u2018R\u2019 Kids Learning Academy of Eagle Springs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> located in Humble, Texas?
