How often do you say thank you? You might thank your mom for making breakfast. And maybe you thank your teacher when she says, "Good job!" But do you ever say thank you for other things, like having good friends or a beautiful day to play outside?
Showing gratitude in this way can help you feel happy and hopeful. Being thankful can help you feel good about what you have. And it can help you feel less sad about things you don't have. Being thankful can even make it easier to share.
It's not always easy to remember to say thank you. But everyone likes to hear it! The next time you're in one of these situations, don't forget to say, "Thanks!"
