As we move into a new year, it can be fun to think about what we want to carry over, and what we want to leave behind. For you, 2021 may have brought some challenges and triumphs and, hopefully, happy memories and growth. It can be meaningful to the children in our lives when we spend time with them looking back and taking stock. In the coming days — perhaps over a meal, in front of a cozy fire, or during a Family Meeting — consider looking back with a few of these sample curiosity questions based on the 4 Crucial Cs. The idea is to enjoy a shared experience with your loved ones of thinking, reminiscing, and reflecting on 2021 to pave the way for a fantastic 2022. Look for where there were strengths and be sure to celebrate all the growth!
