Feelings

We were reading books about feelings....





Followed by an activity of  hammering nails into Styrofoam.
Too often, we do not realize that our words have hurt other people's feelings...
Words can heal or words can wound....

And when bad words are uttered out from our mouth, we cannot pull it back.
We can say sorry for what we said, but the effect of that bad words will still be there...

We reinforced this activity, by hammering nails into the Styrofoam.
The nails that we hammered, are like those bad words...
We can pull the nails out, but the hole will still be there, after we pull the nails out...



Note to Timmy: 
Mama hopes that you will remember this activity for the rest of your life...
Please be considerate to others....
Acknowledge people's feelings, as well as yours...

Speak words that are positive, supportive, kind and loving.
The kind of words that will make people feel energized, motivated and loved.


Love,
Mama
