Activity Ideas:

1) Lots-to-Like List

2) I'm Really Going Places Activity: Print out a bunch of little car images. Color the images. Make a mobile by hanging them from a wire hanger with string. On the back of each car write something special about yourself.

Note: The more a child knows how to do for themselves, the higher their self esteem is. Consider making a FHE treat with them, teaching them how to make it themselves.  Here is an article to read about ability and self esteem in children.
