Giving thoughtful presents is one of the five love languages.

  • a way of showing our unconditional love
  • not only dependent on their behavior or performance
  • to celebrate birthdays, Christmas, other holidays
  • use presents to celebrate achievements or to bring consolation when they’re struggling
  • can be small but make big impact
  • find out what’s special for each child

Try to rank the five love languages in order of importance for you, and then for each of your children.

  1. time
  2. words
  3. touch
  4. presents
  5. actions
