Today is National Photography Day!

📸 National Photography Day Family Adventure
Theme: Seeing the world through your child’s eyes

❏ 📷 Let’s Go on a Photo Adventure!
Celebrate National Photography Day by giving your child the chance to be the family photographer. Whether it’s with a real camera or a phone, the goal is to see what they see.

• You’ll Need:
• A phone, camera, or tablet
• Paper and pen (for captions or titles)
• Optional: photo printer or screen slideshow

► Family Activity:
Head outside or around the house and let your child take 5–10 pictures of things they think are beautiful, funny, important, or interesting. Afterward, look at their photos together and invite them to title each one. Make a mini photo gallery at home—or a digital slideshow!

🧠 Parenting Tips to Build Resilience & Connection

💎 Let your child lead: Giving your child control of the camera helps them build independence and confidence. Let go of “perfect” shots and celebrate what they find meaningful.

💎 Use photos to spark reflection:
❓Why did you choose to take that photo?
❓What do you like about it?
❓Does this photo remind you of something that makes you feel happy, strong, or proud?

These questions build self-awareness and emotional expression.

💎 Focus on strengths: Look for themes in your child’s photos. Do they notice people’s faces, tiny details, or nature? Share your observations—this helps kids feel seen and appreciated for who they are.

💎 Talk about perspective: Teach your child that different people might photograph the same thing in different ways—and that’s okay! This builds empathy and helps kids understand that everyone sees the world a little differently.

💎 Celebrate progress, not perfection: If your child gets frustrated with blurry shots or missed moments, help them see the value in learning. Growth mindset talk like “You’re learning how to see like an artist” builds resilience.

💯 GET POINTS by Capturing the Moment 📸

Happy !

In many parts of the country, children are heading back to school or preparing to do so. Change and transition can lead to big feelings for kids and adults. Can you bring mindful attention to emotions about returning to school? Can you notice having more than one emotion at the same time? Sometimes we are excited but nervous. Or happy for something new but sad that something else is changing. Notice emotions about returning to school with mindful awareness.

¡Feliz !

En muchas partes del país, los niños regresan a la escuela o se preparan para hacerlo. El cambio y la transición pueden generar grandes sentimientos para niños y adultos. ¿Puedes prestar atención consciente a las emociones sobre el regreso a la escuela? ¿Puedes notar tener más de una emoción al mismo tiempo? A veces estamos emocionados pero nerviosos. O feliz por algo nuevo pero triste porque algo más está cambiando. Observe las emociones sobre el regreso a la escuela con atención plena.

Happy . Play a little 'Headline-itis'

❏ As a family pick three headlines that have recently caught your attention.

❏ Do the 5HW (who, what, where, when, why, how) on the headline alone first.

❏ Next read the entire story. Do 5HW again.

❏ Do you think the headline accurately captures the story?
→ Was it what you expected it would be?
→ Does it capture what you got out of the story?
→ What do you wish had been covered?

❏ Now find headlines that tell the other “side” of the story and do the same activities with those stories.

Happy !

Can you bring mindful awareness to how our world is connected? Sit outside and notice how the things in your world are reliant on each other. The trees and flowers need the sunshine and the rain. The people need the trees for shade. Plants provide food for animals and people. Let your attention settle on the many ways our ecosystem is supported through these relationships and have a conversation about it.

¡Feliz !

¿Puedes traer conciencia consciente de cómo nuestro mundo está conectado? Siéntese afuera y observe cómo las cosas en su mundo dependen unas de otras. Los árboles y las flores necesitan la luz del sol y la lluvia. La gente necesita los árboles para dar sombra. Las plantas proporcionan alimento para los animales y las personas. Deje que su atención se detenga en las muchas formas en que nuestro ecosistema se sustenta a través de estas relaciones y tenga una conversación al respecto.

Here's a great Tip!

When you wake up, don't reach for your phone. Do something you love instead: Journal, stretch, make coffee or read one book chapter. Get an alarm clock so you won't need to rely on your phone to wake up.

Happy . Time to play a favorite game using quotes.

Quote-a-Rama, or Three Lies and a Truth

❏ Invite family members to do some homework on incorrect quotes, misattributed quotes, or quotes shared that don’t have a known source,

❏ Have an activity where everyone shares three quotes that aren’t accurate, and one that is. See who can pick the true quote. (Be sure you can source it!)

❏ Turn this into a game or competition as desired.

❏ Discuss why and how even sharing false quotes can be harmful to democracy, and why the opposite is true.
