November is the perfect time to pause and celebrate gratitude.

Take a moment each day to notice what you’re thankful for, and encourage your family to do the same. You can even create a Gratitude Jar, Thankful Tree, or Gratitude Wall at home; add a note, leaf, or drawing of something you appreciate and watch gratitude grow!

Happy November from all of us at Dandelion!

Check out the following slides for 6 common eating behaviors you might recognize, along with some gentle tips to help:
