QUICK TIP: Giving Choices Empowers your Child & Teaches Responsibility

Choices allow children to experience control over their world. Choices also teach children about decision-making and problem-solving. By experiencing both successes and mistakes, children learn to accept responsibility for their choices.

Example: "Today you're having an apple for snack" versus "We have apples and oranges, which would you like for snack today?"
