A look inside

Book page for day 2, “Gratitude”: a pine cone and a frosted leaf on an icy window sill, with the invitation for the day below.Book page for day 3, “Honesty”: a clear stream between snowy, mossy stones, with the invitation for the day below.
Days 2 and 3. Each page has one picture and one small invitation for the day. The winter images in the book were created with AI.

How to use the book

  • One page a day. Each page invites you to do one small thing together with your child. Most take ten minutes or less and need only what you already have.
  • Skipping is fine. Pick the page that fits tonight. There is nothing to catch up on.
  • Your child can say no. Watching from the sofa counts too. So does “I don’t know”.
  • Make it yours. The invitations suit children from about four to ten. For younger children, keep it shorter and more concrete. Older ones can read the page themselves.
