Daily Santa Podcast - The Family Friendly Countdown to Christmas

DAY TEN - Be Patient and Wait Your Turn, Santa's Doctor Visits, News and Fun Podcast Suggestions Welcome to Day Ten everyone! We hope this has been elftastic fun for you so far! Candy Cane Cookies have arrived, or have they gone missing? We are going to talk about patience, but you will have to wait for it! Doctor Wait, Santa's family Doctor drops in with some great advice for us at this busy time of the year! Patience is a skill. And like all skills, patience can be learned. Just like learning to walk, ride a bike or playing a piano We can learn patience, and get better at being patient as we work on it The best way to learn patience is to practice patience Patience is not simply the ability to wait. It’s how we behave while we’re waiting. Here are 4 things to consider about patience - talk about these things with your family to see how you can add these to your day ONE - When learning patience, start small just like learning anything, you will not be great at something if you never try little babies are not very patient - when they want something, they want it right now! we have to learn patience - that is a lot of work TWO - We have to learn how to wait for what we want We need to take turns, allow someone to go first, put someone else ahead of us THREE - realize that being patient is hard work We wait for a bus, wait for dinner, wait for our friend to catch up, we do a lot of waiting FOUR - learning patience is not just for adults when we start learning and practicing patience as a child, we will use what we learn as an adult it is no fun to be asked to wait for our turn, but if we can learn how to wait, we will see it pay off in the future So I told you to wait to find out what patience was, didn't I... do you know, that waiting to hear what patience is, that waiting to the end to find out what it is was actually being patient? Patience is simply being calm, realizing that there are other people involved and allowing others time and space at this busy time of year there is very little patience, honking car horns, pushing and shoving, angry responses to people in our way, or doing things that make our day worse - those are the people that need patience Remember you have to learn it patience is not free! See you tomorrow! We would love to hear form you!! Podcast created by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/ https://dailysantapodcast.com/ --- Send in a voice message: https://www.speakpipe.com/HelloDave

DAY SIX - Don't Make Others Feel Small, Santa shares Secrets About His Sleigh, New Streaming Service Elf Flix Today we talk about - walking in someone else's shoes, - how to make others feel better about themselves, - we share a secret about Santa's Sleigh - Santa answers some messages from listeners - The Santa Daily News, - and a new streaming service, just for elves called - Elf Flix Ok everyone, Santa has provided his suggested topic for today's show - Santa wants to remind us that we should always make others feel big, and never make people feel small. Well Selfie, that is interesting - yes elves are small, and that makes you and the rest of the other amazing elves here at the north pole special. For the adults and kids listening, making someone feel small is something that many people around the world do to each other - and it is really sad. You can make someone feel small, or not important just by the way you treat them. We all remember the story of Rudolph - remember, he wasn't included in the games that his friends were playing - so he felt like he didn't belong, that his friends didn't want him to be apart of the group - he felt small, not like an elf small, just small or not as important as everyone else. Some times people can be mean - they say or do things that don't include other people - sometimes, these people end up on Santa's naughty list and they don't even know that they are making others feel small. We need to be gentle with others around us - our friends at school, brother or sister, adults and teachers, we should never treat someone in a way that makes them feel small - or another big person word is - insignificant or meaningless. Everyone is significant and full of meaning - even if they don't look like, act like, think like, play like or come from the same place that you do. Santa wants us all to think about others first - to look at the world through their eyes, understand how they are different and unique - what makes them special. to do this some people say that we should walk a mile in someone else's shoes - have you ever walked in someone else's shoes before selfie? Put Yourself in the Other Person’s Shoes When you are playing with your friends and they have an idea or a new way to do something - are you willing to listen and to try their way or does it always have to be your way? Sometimes their way might be better, or more fun - sometimes your way might be the best choice, but how will you know if you never listen to others and try their ideas - see the world as they see it and learn from others. Let's look for ways to be more considerate of others And that, is how you can stay on Santa's Nice list - it really does work. What will you do today to make others big instead of making them feel little.

DAY TWO - Let's Be Honest, First Listener Voice Mail, A Santa Joke and Santa is Hiding Welcome to Day two! &nbsp;We are counting down to Christmas with Santa and his friends! &nbsp;Thanks for joining us! Our big topic for today is about honesty! &nbsp;Let's be honest, we need to be kind and not lie to adults and to our friends or family - when we are not honest we hurt people around us Let's Be Honest Imagine that you broke your mom's favorite item because you were playing soccer in the house. When she comes home, she asks for an explanation. What are your choices in this situation? You could tell her that you have no idea how it happened, or you could be honest and tell her exactly how the item was broken. Honesty &nbsp;is telling the truth even when it may be tempting to tell a lie. Many times in life, you may be faced with the choice of telling the truth or telling a lie. Sometimes those lies might be extremely tempting! You might want to lie so you won't get in trouble, or in some cases, to avoid hurting other people's feelings. No matter what the situation, being honest and telling the truth is typically the best choice. A person who is trustworthy can be counted on to tell the truth. If you look at the two words that make up the compound word of ''trustworthy,'' it makes sense: Telling the truth makes you worthy of someone's trust. You want your friends and family to be able to count on you at all times. If you lie often, people will begin to question the things you say and may not believe you. In fact, they may think you're lying all the time, even when you're actually telling the truth. We have our first listener call in, a joke submitted by a listener, news updates and yes, even a few bloopers! &nbsp;Hope you enjoy the fun!
