Shh! Tomorrow, February 25th, is National Don’t Utter A Word Day! It’s a day for QUIET! GoodGrandma℠ suggests making a game out of the National Holiday. Do you remember playing the quiet game? Introduce this game to the grandkids. Better yet, learn some sign language and communicate without uttering a word.

Or you could teach your cute little ones how to be good listeners. The Today Show recently had an article on How to be a good listener: 7 tips for better communication. Perhaps we all could use a refresher course?

7 Tips for Better Communication

  1. Realize listening is the more powerful position
  2. Remember you already know about you
  3. Keep an open and curious mind
  4. Ask expansive questions
  5. Don’t pepper people from questions
  6. Come back from ‘mental side trips’
  7. Let worry and anxiety fall away
