This Month’s Value: Respecting Ownership – Owning Our Actions and Choices

This month, we’re focusing on the value of Respecting Ownership – Owning Our Actions and Choices.

For preschoolers, this means learning that their actions have consequences and that it’s important to take responsibility for their behavior. Whether it’s putting toys away after playtime or saying “I’m sorry” when they make a mistake, teaching kids to own their choices helps build accountability and self-respect.

Parents and teachers can model this by gently guiding children to recognize when they’ve made a choice, and encouraging them to make it right. It’s all part of growing into kind, responsible individuals.
