Gratitude for Parents - Wonderful Years Way

By Mimi Say

May and June ring a bell to children and parents. They are two months that are heavily commercialised: Mother's Day and Father's Day. Are they the only two days in a whole year that children thank their parents? Or the only ways to thank their parents are those planned by business entities namely through flower bouquets or banquets? Every family has their own way to cherish their members and we hope this does not happen on certain designated days but throughout the years.

Young children often take their parents for granted. Their hunger for physical and emotional needs has to be constantly fed. Parents' sacrifice for their children is enormous. Hence we need to instil in young children appreciation for their parents and to be thankful for what are provided for them. One of our activities is to celebrate parents' day. It is a day where children are given the opportunity to thank their parents and to have a fun day out with parents.
