Hey Bestie Hey!!!

So...I have to be honest! Right now, I’m wearing a cape around my neck! Okay maybe it isn’t a “real” cape, but it’s real to me! It’s actually one of my dad’s old T-shirts that I tied around my neck! I like to use his shirts because they are bigger than mine and I like my capes to be gigantic! Right now, I’m in Super mode! You could get in Super mode right now, too! You don’t have to use your dad’s T-shirt.

You could use a towel or one of your own old shirts!

Alright, are you in super mode, too?

Woo-hoooooooo!!!

I can feel your super energy! It’s amazing!

Just imagine if every single kid in the world got in super mode right now! Whoa!

There would be some powerful energy going all around the entire planet!

Okay Bestie! So now we’re in Super mode! Today we are going to dive back into our Connection languages! Remember there are five! Last time, we talked about the connection language, “Feeling Valued” and we taught someone something fun to help them to feel valued!

Today, we’re going to use our super mode power and use another connection language to help someone else feel AMAZING.

Remember, people have different connection languages that help them to feel even more amazing.

The connection language that works for me and makes me really happy may not work for you! But, right now, we’re just going to practice them!

Today, let’s practice the Connection Language, “Feeling Seen.” This connection language is great for people who feel happier when they know that people are paying attention to them.  These people feel a bit sad when they think they are being left out or ignored!

Okay, so super mode on! When I want to turn my super mode power on, I stand up and jump up and down and say

“I am AMAZING” FIVE TIMES! When I do this, it gives me lots of energy, gets my heart pumping, and helps me to feel AMAZING!

Let’s do it together...ready?  Go!

Whew! Okay Bestie, here’s your mission! With your Super mode cape on, help someone to feel seen!

You can help someone to feel seen by giving them lots of compliments like, “Wow! I love what you made! Your work keeps getting better!”  “Thank you so much for being so helpful!” “I’m so proud of you for trying new things, Wow!”

You can also help someone to feel seen by giving them some special attention by doing things like playing games with them or inviting them to join you and your friends.

When you help someone to feel seen, you let them know that they have our attention and you give them your attention.

Who could you do this for today?

 It could even be your mom, dad, friend, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, grandma, or grandpa.  Is there anyone you think may feel like people don’t really see them?

Alright Bestie, you got this!

This is going to be amazing!

Imagine how much happiness is going around the world right now because I am doing kind things, you are doing kind things, and other kids around the world are doing kind things!! We are filling the world with kindness!

Yes!!!

I can’t wait to get started and it’s going to be so much fun with my super mode cape on!!

Let’s get to it!!!

Have an excellent day today!!

Love,

Big Bestie
