Homestyle: Your Kids and Gratitude Journals
How can you get them to enjoy writing but also write with a purpose?
In this week’s episode of Homestyle, my co-host Leigh Guidry and I talk about two subjects near and dear to our hearts: our kids and writing. Possibly not in that order.
I kid. As far as Leigh is concerned, anyhow.
As her girls and mine are getting more interested in writing and drawing, there comes this need to want to divert the flow of the pen a little bit and guide them. Leigh’s idea for her girls is a gratitude journal. By having them write what they’re thankful for, it allows them to be reflective and expressive, which is an important writing school later in education.

The Homestyle Podcast is a joint venture between myself and one of my best friends, education reporter Leigh Guidry. Throughout each episode, we discuss cooking, crafting, and other hobbies as well as how we make sure to spend time with our families despite how insanely busy life can be. The goal of the podcast has always been to take a moment to focus on what’s really important because, at the end of the day, family and life are more important than whatever distractions are going on in the world around us.
