THE INAUGURATION OF PRO-KIDZ CLUB AT ROYAL DIAMOND PRIVATE SCHOOL

The inauguration of Pro-Kidz Club took place today the 7th day of June, 2016 at Royal Diamond Private School, Gardol Street, Ijaiye Ogba, Lagos- Nigeria.

It was an exciting programme which was put together by me.

I envisioned a better world that a group of individuals will build through love, kindness, passion for a happy lifestyle, positivity and dedication to humanity. These group of people will comprise both young and old coming together.

I would like to appreciate the school's administrators in the persons of Mr. Alex and Mr. Abel who have been very supportive over the years. This has motivated me to start the club in their school. 

Here is my own little way of giving back to humanity. Any little act of kindness from you can have a long lasting positive impact on your children, the children around you and the world at large.

READ A BUNCH

Here are ways parents can encourage their children to cultivate a reading habit:

(1) Allow them to choose the book that interest them.

(2) They can also read audio books.

(3) Create an awesome reading space for them.

(4) Get them while reading.

(5) Sometimes, get them outside by creating a colourful outdoor space for them to read.

(6) Register them in a book club.

(7) parents should also be reading partners. 

(8) Do book review with your children.

(9) Make out time to take a book(s) to the park during picnic(s).

(10) invite your children's friends and organise a reading party for them.

(11) Organise a reading competition amongst your children and their friends.

THINK RIGHT TREE

You can make a think right tree with your child/children by writing out positive things about each other on a colourful paper and paste them on another paper to form a tree. You can frame the finished work.

This project will be an amazing way to teach a child/children how to think positively.

THE KEYS TO SUCCESS PART 1

Atkins was a well mannered hardworking boy. He  had a sister named Cherry who was very lazy. 

 Mr. and Mrs. Patterson were Atkins and Cherry's parents.They tried as much as they could to nurture good character in both children, just that Cherry was lazy.

"Cherry Dear, do help to do the dishes while i do the laundry, please," Mrs. Patterson told her daughter.

Cherry squeezed her face and replied, "Mum, i can't, I just can't," Cherry answered.

"Why?" Mrs. Patterson asked.

"Nothing, I just don't want to," Cherry replied.

 Mrs. Patterson would never tolerate  laziness, "Get in there at once and do the dishes," she said firmly.

 Cherry reluctantly went to do the dishes.

Mr. Patterson and Atkins were in the kitchen putting dinner together.

Atkins was happily helping out with dinner. Indeed, it was a very tasty one.

THE KEYS TO SUCCESS PART 2

One day, it was announced that each school in the state of Bastille should nominate an Ambassador for  Character Competition.

 Atkins was chosen to represent Bloomingdale School because no one could match his good character and intelligence.

"And the winner is, Atkins Patterson," the governor announced.

Atkins was overjoyed to have won the character competition.

Dedicating his award to his parents, Atkins said, " I dedicate this award to my parents, Mr. and Mrs. Patterson, for the amazing work they did in raising me."

Atkins also won as the overall best Ambassador at the national level. His good character, intelligence, his positive attitude and kindness warmed the hearts of the judges. 

"Atkins is such an amazing individual who has shown an impeccable character throughout this competition... " The president announced.

Mr. and Mrs. Atkins were given a standing ovation and an award for raising such an amazing individual as Atkins.

Cherry was green with envy.

When the family got home, Cherry told her parents, "Mum, Dad, I am very sorry for how I have behaved in the past. Today, I learnt that good character pays."

"It is so good that you have realised all we did for you and your brother," Mrs. Patterson said.

"Cherry, good character is key to success," her dad said.

"Thank you Dad, thank you Mum, I really appreciate you both," Cherry told her parents.

"And thank you Atkins, for making our family proud,'" Cherry told her brother as she hugged him.

SUPERHEROES' SKILLS

        SUPERHEROES' SKILLS

Parents are superheroes.They ought to be given those superheroes names and powers.

Parents are on a special assignment here on earth. If I should write a  script for them, they will be able to perform all superheroes' powers. Infact, I will invent other powers that are yet to exist.

Don't ever underestimate yourselves. I marvel at what parents can do. There is need to expose your children to the realities of life early.

Most times, parents over protect their children and wait too late to expose them to being superheroes early in life.

 

Let children too start their superheroes' journey on time. The more you allow them to face the realities of life, the stronger they become.

You will notice that the domestic staff that work in most homes are usually stronger than the children of the house. The reason is that these staff have started playing thie superheroes' roles at a very early age. 

Over sheltering and over protectiveness most times do not allow children to thrive the way they ought to.

Please allow your children to start to learn their superheroes' skills early.
