DAY THIRTEEN - Be Positive, Selfie's New Toy, Santa News and Facts

Selfie plays with his new Elf-Alexa, we look at how we can be more positive, check out our Christmas Song Choices this year and much more!

Here are four ways that we can be more positive:

Always Give Your Best Effort – If we give our best effort in all that we do and think we will be able to realize what they are truly capable of. Trying hard can lead to more confidence, and help us to develop a positive attitude about the world around us
Give Back To Your Community – Volunteering as a family can help us to connect with others. Even activities as simple as helping others, spending time with someone that is lonely or giving to people in need, these acts help us to focus on our community Our actions can make a positive difference in the world, buy helping others we will be more positive about who we are, and about our community.
Practice Positive Self-Talk – We need to use gentle words when talking to others. A great way to develop this skill is to talk to ourselves as if we were talking to our best friend. If we wouldn’t say something mean to our best friend or loved one, we shouldn’t say it to ourselves. The way we think directly impacts our behavior and feelings about the world. If we can think positively about ourselves, we will likely feel the same way about the world around us.
Take Ownership & Responsibility For our Actions – We all need to realize that we have control over the outcomes of the challenges that we face. Reducing anxiety and practicing problem-solving skills at a young age can have a huge effect on how we think and act for the rest of our lives. Being confident is one of the best ways to help encourage positive thinking.

We answer more Santa Questions on today's episode

We also look at being creative

6 Ways to become more creative

Being creative allows us to be more flexible and become better problem solvers. When you can solve problems you are able to help others at the same time!

1. Allow time to dream and wonder

One of the main ways to become creative is to wonder. Like why is the sky blue? Why does the ocean water have waves and not the water in lakes or ponds? How does gravity work? And so on. Find the answer to what you are curious about - this is a great way to be a better student - you will learn many things if you never stop wondering!

2. Share what you learn

Some kids are awesome at music, some kids are great playing sports, or reading, maybe math is your superpower! Help those around you that might not be great at the piano, or can run as fast as you, help your friend read better, or show your classmate how to understand a math problem. If you learn and do not share, you are not helping others!

3. There is more than one way to Solve Every Problem

There are multiple ways to solve a problem and also different perspectives to look at everything. Be open to others, how they do things, how they think - you can learn a lot from others around you

4. Be Curious

We are born curious. When you are thirsty you get a drink of water, when you are curious you fill up your knowledge tanks with information that will help you for the rest of your life!

5. Read for fun

Limit TV or other screen time of your kids to make room for creative hobbies like reading as it encourages thought activity which in turn promotes creativity. If you can read for fun and not because you have to, you will fall in love with books

6. Try something new

Try something new - something that you have never done, you might find that you could unlock a fun new activity, sport or hobby that you would have never known about if you had not tried it for the first time

Being creative is very important - it helps us to think big, accept others and their differences and become a better person

Be creative today - try something new!
