Happy Holidays, Mama-Friend!
Ah, that crazy time of year when we pull out Elf on the Shelf, thinking that we are going to use it to gently persuade our kids into being good because their every move is being watched; so, that leads me to the question, do I really need Elf on the Shelf to help my kids be “good”? Does it REALLY work, or is it something I can stop doing with my kids?
We are answering those juicy questions, and, hold up! What?! I should stop asking my kids if they’ve been good this year. Is it okay to tell them that Santa’s watching and that he only delivers gifts to GOOD girls and boys? But my kids NEED to be good, otherwise Santa won’t come…or, will he? Let’s talk about the message that sends to our kids.
Is there a different way to approach Santa? How can we talk about Santa without using him as something to take away if our kids aren’t magically well behaved in the weeks leading up to Christmas?
We are talking about a mindset shift we can make as parents to help our kids understand that Santa (and Christmas) is more than just getting gifts when our kids are “good.” He’s about spreading kindness, and that’s the message we should send to our kids.
Let’s suit up for this well-needed, and very timely episode, as the holidays are upon us, mama-friend!
**Disclaimer and very important message: Grab some headphones or disappear from your kids for this one, because little ears don’t need to hear the secrets I disclose in this episode! 😊
Thanks for listening!
Michelle
