Do You Speak affirmations With Your Children?

Do You Speak Affirmations With Your Children?

Before I get started on my journey as a mother this post is in no way or form to bash my parents at all. Being a mother of three and currently expecting my fourth I’ve had a chance to understand the importance of speaking life into my children.

Growing up, I honestly don’t remember my parents saying affirmations of any sort to me and my sibling. Maybe it wasn’t a big deal or it wasn’t something my parents were focused on back in the day. Times have definitely changed and I am changing the narrative on how parents should speak life into their children.

I was glad when, Nancy Torres had her assistant reach out to me to collaborate on her new children’s book, “Say It With Me (Dilo conmigo)” that me and my children were excited to receive the book in the mail.

We received the book right before the kids started school. We immediately started to read and related to the affirmations listed in the book. The kids started school in August of this year so we thought it would be cool to share some of the affirmations in a cool video. Click the image below to check it out!

Being a mother for the past nine years I’ve found that creating a routine and talking life into your children helps them with their feelings towards themselves and others. Saying affirmations out loud helps them build confidence and feel secure in knowing who they are as a person.

I want to thank Nancy for writing such a book. Being a teaching professional and a mother herself she knows firsthand that kids need to hear these affirmations daily. She took an idea and made it a reality for her family and for other families all over the world. Thank you!

Enjoy some of the affirmations from the book below!
