📌 Important Notes:

• Positive affirmations should feel supportive and believable to the child. Invite children to choose or adapt statements rather than requiring them to repeat affirmations that do not feel comfortable or authentic.
• Halloween themes may not be appropriate for every child or family. Consider cultural, religious, sensory, and individual preferences when selecting activities.
