12 Leadership Ideas To Do With Your Kidsعينة

Be a Host Visit the home of someone this week. Take your young person with you and warn them to watch how well the person you visit hosts you, as guests (you could also have them watch you as you host guests in your own home.) Afterward, talk about what it means to host others. A host is someone who takes initiative with others and makes them feel comfortable. They often guide the conversation and do a lot of listening in the process. Then, explain that relational leaders are “hosts” in the relationships and conversations of their life. They are not guests, waiting for someone to tend to them. Finally, have your young person practice hosting others this week. Have them focus on the needs and interests of others in conversations, not their own. Have them find one good quality about each person they meet and compliment them about it. Talk about how they are doing each night as you close out the day.
