Hug Your Kids Everyday

“We need four hugs a day for survival. We need eight hugs a day for maintenance. We need twelve hugs a day for growth.” - Virginia Satir, family therapist

Hugs warm the heart and touches the soul.

I love giving my kids a hug, holding them close to my heart and wrapping them in the warm folds of my arms. It's my way of letting them know that I value and love them. It makes me feel good and I know that it makes my kids happier too.

July 19 is Hug Your Kids Day! It's a global, year-round movement, encouraging parents to hug their kids every day. It's a program founded by Michelle Nichols, who believes that hugs can make a kid's day, and even change his life.

It's good that here in the Philippines, Children's Clusivol supports this movement through the National Yakap Your Child Day. I've supported this movement and joined the thousands of people who have pledged to hug their kids everyday!


I've sent in three pictures at Yakapables.com simply to show my commitment - a picture hugging my daughter, hugging my son and hugging both of them. With sheer luck, our picture was even chosen as one of the Winning Photo for Week 1. I've got to receive a limited edition Yakapable shirt and gift packs.



It feels good to give and receive a hug. Support this movement and hug your kids everyday!
