Can you believe that 2022 is here? To kick off the New Year, there is great power in writing down your goals. Did you know that you're more likely to achieve a goal if you’ve tangibly written it down–and yes, that applies to children too. Whether they want to earn good grades, learn how to ride a bike, or anything else, letting them visualize their goals by writing and drawing them can help.
Now, if you sit your kids down with a piece of paper and pencil, this will feel more like a homework assignment than a fun arts and crafts activity. That’s where OOLY comes in with colorful markers, glittery pens, easy to use paint supplies, and an array of stickers to inspire and spark joy.
If they want to add some sparkle to their projects, OOLY has many options! Our glitter gel pens offer a shiny, radiant finish that will add pizzazz to your arts and crafts.

2. Next, write down why you want to achieve that goal - What will happen if this comes to fruition? Will you feel a sense of accomplishment? Will you be happier or healthier? Whatever your “why” is, it’s important to keep that in mind because that will keep you motivated.
3. Finally, write down how you’re going to work towards achieving it - What actions are you going to take each day to get closer to your goals? (Now, make sure they are realistic because as the wise-saying goes, “slow and steady wins the race.”)
Want to keep your goals in sight at all times? Make use of sticky notes to write down what you want and place them in areas you go to frequently. For some, that may be a home office, the kitchen, or a glove compartment. Regardless of where it is, the more you’re able to see what you’re hoping to achieve, the better off you’ll be in working to make those dreams a reality.
