Age-Appropriate Beauty – Disney D-Lightful Challenge Week 9

November 8, 2011 by Janice

Girls will be girls, which means sooner or later your little lady will want to begin experimenting with make-up. Disney-inspired make-up offers magic and whimsy to inspire girls while offering safe, age-appropriate products moms can trust.

Olivia is only four, but she is such a little lady. She loves her Disney Princesses and dressing up in fancy clothes and shoes. And she loves it when we paint our nails together.

I love this age. I’ve been trying to figure out how I could bottle her innocence up and keep her this way for a long, long time.

I’m not ready for the day when Olivia asks me to wear make-up or when she starts to have her own ideas about the clothes she wears or the way she styles her hair.

Luckily, Disney is right behind me, ready to bridge that gap when it comes.

Help kids embrace age-appropriate beauty

With the help of this week’s video challenge, Disney will help you get your kids to embrace age-appropriate beauty products and learn to feel good from the inside out.

Check out the tips below on ways to help your kids develop age-appropriate beauty habits:

  • Let your daughter experiment with different clothes and makeup and always communicate with her during the process
  • Stay connected with your children as they figure out their personal style
  • Take a moment each day and let your child know how you feel about them– give positive reinforcement about the child as a person

 

What are some ways you encourage your kids (whether they are teens, tweens, or younger) to be beautiful from the inside out?

D’Lightful Living Grand Prize Sweetpstakes

Getting kids to become animated about healthy lifestyle habits is not always easy. To thank families for striving to embrace healthy habits and following the 12-week D-Lightful Living program, Disney Consumer Products (DCP) invites fans to enter to win the ultimate grand prize – a trip for four to a special Disney Magic of Healthy Living experience at a Disney resort in 2012.

    It’s so important to have girls realize that beauty is so much more than just skin deep. Kindness, generosity, love, and concern for others makes a girl beautiful. As a mom of 2 beautiful girls, that’s what I stress most.

    I tell my daughter every day how smart she is – and she overhears me telling other people, too. She loves learning new things and we are very involved in that. I also tell her she is the cutest girl in the world though 🙂 She LOVES painted nails!

    I think it’s all about being the best we can be and letting that little light shine. Of course, being a good role model for our children and taking pride in who we are and what we do (instead of how we look) provides them with a positive example.

    Wow, 4 girls in my house could definitely give this stuff some love! I just always try to tell my girls that they are pretty, princesses, etc. We discuss how it’s not good when people choose to be mean and that we want to be nice like a princess. 🙂

    To encourage beauty inside we encourage and praise unselfishness, helpfulness and kindness. And we love to keep each child feeling special so they know that fun stuff like nail polish & lipstick s just a bonus. 🙂 creedamy [at] yahoo[dot] com

    i allow my just-turned 8 year old daughter to wear a small amount of make-up (only lip gloss at school). When she does wear make-up I only allow a small amount and will wash of any excess. My daughter and I have had lots of good discussions about having good manners and to care about other’s feelings. We talk about how that makes you a beautiful person and that make-up does not. It’s whats on the inside that counts.

    My 7 year old daughter is always encouraged by me and her father about how smart she is and especially how beautiful she is – on the inside! We tell her how important it is to be sweet, kind, loving, and respectful to people and that is what truly makes you beautiful. (The other beauty is just bonus!)

    I try to tell my daughter frequently that I’m proud of her behavior and how she is so kind to others. Keeping girls in “age appropriateness” is a daily challenge! She’s 6 1/2, and nails are one thing we do allow and enjoy …. she’d love this!

    Thanks

    I always tell my daughter that she’s smart and that if she keeps trying, she can do anything. We place an emphasis on being kind and attributes that come from within, like empathy and humor. It’s not easy when everything in the media is appearance-driven!

    Whenever I spend time with my niece, I teach her that looks aren’t everything. Sure, I make sure her hair is done pretty and her clothes match and aren’t totally to shreds. But, I always give her one compliment. Whether it be how sweet she is, or how smart she is, I always try to instill in her that there are more then just looks. She’s only 4, but I will continue to do this for ever and always!

    I spend as much time telling her she’s beautiful, as I do telling her she’s smart.

    Without her brain she’ll be just another face in the crowd!
