The Twelve Gifts of Birth

“As we start to draw a map to happiness, it looks as if compassion – for ourselves and for others – is shaping up to be a major landmark.” ~ Miriam Boleyn-Fitzgerald

Studies are showing that children who learn about kindness, courage, inner strength and beauty – all their gifts – tend to share more, like school and do well there, and are happier than children in whom these gifts are not cultivated.  Here you’ll find some ways to nurture The Twelve Gifts in the children you love.

Along with actual activities, there are ideas and approaches to consider. Inspirational quotes and anecdotes too. Please return often to see what’s been added and to share your suggestions and experiences too.
