Morning Affirmations for Kids on Health and Wealth (Day 7)

By Eleaya Neveah

Good morning, and happy Thursday! Today I want to talk about two big words: health and wealth. I used to think wealth only meant having lots of money. Now I'm learning that being rich starts with the little things I do every single day. Taking care of my body and my heart is the very first way I get rich.

Today's Affirmation

My body is my first home, and a grateful heart makes me rich.

I take care of both, one small choice at a time.

Say It With Me

  • I drink water and give my body good food.
  • I move my body, and I love how strong it feels.
  • I rest when I'm tired, because sleep helps me shine.
  • I save a little and share a little.
  • I am rich in love, kindness and big dreams.

Why I Need This One

Some days I'm so busy with chorus, dance and singing that I forget to drink water, or I stay up too late. Then I feel tired and a little grumpy. When I take care of my body, I have so much more energy to sing loud and dance all day.

Wealth isn't only money. It's the people who love me, the things I get to learn and the dreams I'm working toward. When I say thank you for what I already have, I feel rich right now, today.

I'm also learning that money is something you take care of too. Saving even one dollar helps a big dream grow. Healthy habits and smart habits both start small, and they grow right along with me.

Your Little Challenge for Today

Drink a big glass of water before breakfast, and put one coin or one dollar in a jar for a dream you have. Then come back tomorrow for Day 8.

A Note for Parents

This morning, set a glass of water by your child's plate and name one thing your family is grateful for. If you can, start a small savings jar together and let them name the dream it's for. Then read today's affirmation out loud together. For more words to share, see Dads, Say These 10 Things to Your Daughter Every Morning and Moms, Say These 10 Words Over Your Daughter Every Morning.
