Ep. 91 - The Secret to Making Childhood Memories
Episode 91
The matching pajamas. The elaborate elf setup. The perfect presents.
We pour ourselves out every December trying to create “magic” for our kids—but what if they won’t even remember it?
In this freeing and research-backed episode, Christy-Faith uncovers what kids truly remember about their childhood holidays (and what they don’t). Through the science of memory and emotion, she reveals why the pressure for “perfect” holidays actually blocks memories from forming and what to do instead.
