This one is for: Mornings, new beginnings, after adifficult yesterday, or simply when your child could use a little curiosity about the day ahead. Lucky doesn't promise that everything will be wonderful; he reminds them that we don't know yet what today might hold.

Little mental muscle: Optimism, curiosity & cognitive flexibility.

ABOUT LUCKY LOU'S Bite-Sized Affirmations:

Sometimes we need a little courage. Sometimes a little calm. Sometimes we just need to hear, “Hey, you can try again.”

And that's when an "Ahhh…THAT’S the Lucky we need today.” happens!🐾

Because that's exactly how I picture this being used. Not necessarily “It's Tuesday, therefore we're on Affirmation#7.” 😂

A parent notices what's happening:

We're having a perfectionist moment. → Lucky #4.

School worry this morning. → Lucky #2.

Something went horribly wrong, and we're DONE. → Lucky #6.

Little nervous system is running at approximately 900 mph. 😂 → Lucky #8.

And eventually the child can choose:

“Which Lucky do you think you need today?”
