Want to impress your children this Christmas and reintroduce them to the joys of writing again? Keep on reading. It may be tough separating them from their beloved gadgets. Smartphones and tablets are keeping us from communicating like we once did before. We think it is easier to send an email. This may be so, but what we make up in productivity, we lose in character and meaning. It is much more impersonal to communicate with what is trendy today.
Personalized stationery for children is not as crazy as some of you think. Yeah, I know, most kids aren't interested in that sort of thing. They are too busy playing video games or texting their friends. Not all children are the same. This we can all agree on. Each child has their own distinctive personality. Some are shy and quite, some are blabbermouths. Some are athletic or book smart. Try to figure them out, I dare you. They are always changing and yes, we have a hand in molding them into the people they become (keep this mind for later).
One of the joys of parenthood is seeing our kids develop and grow into responsible and caring individuals. We are there with them experiencing their pitfalls and successes. We sit in the bleachers cheering them on. We help them with their homework and give them practical advice because we once lived through it all. We do all of this and more and sometimes when they don't even ask for it.
Do you remember what it was like being a kid? This is a question I have asked many times before. One day your child will become independent and take on the world as they see fit. They will apply the lessons you have taught them and continue on just like you did when you were their age.
With all this talk about parents and the roles they play in a child's life – here is my point – parents are teachers. It's a plain and simple analogy. They inspire, support and guide those who have yet to discover everything that is good and exciting in the world. This, of course, includes introducing them to the art of writing on their very own personalized stationery. Is this a farfetched idea? Maybe…but we're not going to know if we don't try. For those of you who are still unconvinced. Ask yourself this question: who or what inspired you to write your message on personalized stationery?
