Add heart to your routines with our printable menu!
Our daily routines define our lives. After all, we are what we do day after day.
By adopting one or two simple, caring routines, you'll give your children a strong sense of themselves as helpers. In this way, big-hearted habits empower kids to become thoughtful, engaged citizens throughout their lives.
We’ve created a menu of big-hearted family routines, pairing our favorite habits with the cues that have worked best for members of the DGT Family.
