If She Worked Hard, Reward Her
If your daughter has been working hard so far this school year to get those grades that you always hoped she would, then maybe it’s time for a little rewarding of all those efforts. You know how much you enjoy being pampered at the spa so why wouldn’t you consider some of the same pampering for her? Consider the following ideas to make it a truly memorable experience that both of you will enjoy and benefit, but also one that may keep her focused on the future to keep those grades up so future pampering can occur!
- If she’s already had the mani-pedi routine with you, make sure you pick someplace new so it’s exciting for both of you.
- If she comes out from one of the services with a favorite product (the moisturizer frm the facial or the toe color from the pedicure, consider buying it for her so she can take the experience home and stay motivated from it.
- Spas are often set up for side-by-side massages thanks to the ever-popular Valentine treat of a couple’s massage, but this setting can also be used for you and your daughter to enjoy some genuine bonding time as well.
- Try not to complain about a single thing all day, and this includes the price of services. Do your upfront homework (just as you expect her to do her homework!) to make sure you expect what you will be charged. You want this day to be pleasant and stress-free, and if you complain about anything she’ll pick up on your stress.
- Allocate enough time to make a full day of it. Even if the spa treatments only take a few hours, make sure you throw in time for a nice “grown up” lunch or an afternoon of shopping.
