Send us a text

CROSSOVER EPISODE!! Ready to ignite the spirit of generosity in your children? Dr. Beth Trammell and Leslie Bolser, your hosts from Core Essential Values, are here to guide us along this journey. We share handy tips to nurture and model this value in the youngest members of our families. We highlight how even the smallest gestures, like sharing Skittles, can significantly impact someone's day. As the festive season approaches, we stress the importance of intentionally involving children in acts of giving.

Our discussion evolves, encompassing the challenges of teaching older children about generosity and the significance of giving beyond materialistic expectations. We explore the idea that generosity can't be forced, especially in teenagers, but needs to be instilled and nurtured instead. We dive into the importance of teaching them to give without expecting anything in return and encouraging the transition from material giving to the kind that brings meaning to their lives. We conclude with a powerful conversation about giving to save or rescue, emphasizing the need for more profound conversations with our children. Strap in for an engaging exploration of generosity and its implications.
