    Love and appreciation in my culture (I am from Russia) is usually shown by physical affection (hugs, holding hands, pat on the back, on the head, kisses on the cheek or forehead) and verbal affection (using pet words, verbs of affection). People also like to do nice things for each other and normally don’t expect to be rewarded back.

  2. Robyn says

    Hugs and kisses, silly names, baking, reading, time together. Our family has strong English and Polish roots.

  3. Bianca Rogoveanu says

    February 10, 2014 at 5:34 am

    Respect and sincereness !

  4. Amanda says

    February 10, 2014 at 6:11 am

    The British are quite reserved in showing affection, and certainly out in public (with the exception of drunken teenagers 😉 ) and appreciation is generally understated. Quite often there’s a lot more meant in the words than comes across – but we don’t like a big fuss about everything!

  5. Molly C. says

    February 10, 2014 at 7:17 am

    Love and appreciation are shown in ways both big and small in America. Positive affirmation, saying “thank you, ” hugs and kisses and cuddles, and doing nice things for one another.

  6. Kelly D says

    February 10, 2014 at 8:09 am

    Love and appreciation is shown through helping each other, cooking for the one you love or appreciate, giving small gifts or hugs and kisses.

  7. Frances says

    February 10, 2014 at 8:50 am

    As a Puerto Rican I can tell you that we’re huggers! We hug everyone for anything that we’re appreciative for! 🙂

  8. Jodi Monroy says

    February 10, 2014 at 8:57 am

    In our Mexican American family love and affection is shown through our words, our cuddles, our food and our time!

  9. Lisette says

    February 10, 2014 at 9:15 am

    We make tradition tamales from my husband’s grandmother’s recipe every Christmas. Everyone in the family makes then, some with their own twists, and we do a taste test 😉

  10. Barca Mama says

    February 10, 2014 at 11:36 am

    The usual hugs & kisses. Dinners out, flowers and cards are all common too. However, my personal favourite is when my H lets me sleep in and brings me coffee in bed.

  11. maryanne @ mama smiles says

    February 10, 2014 at 1:00 pm

    Time is a huge way to show love and appreciation – as is service and remembering birthdays 🙂

  12. Annabelle says

    February 10, 2014 at 1:05 pm

    Hugs, kisses and quality time.

  13. Amanda says

    Traditionally, Chinese are more reserved in expressing love with words. Action speaks louder than words. Parents show their love by taking good care of the family. Children show their love through being respectful to their parents, help out with chores, be kind to younger siblings and later when they are financially independent they would support the aging parents out of their own will. Time has changed, now young generation of Chinese parents tell their kids they love them in words and they spend quality time with the kids. Hugs and kisses to young children are common expressions of love for parents.

  14. Naila Moon says

    February 10, 2014 at 4:32 pm

    Affection and respect toward one another. Calling once in awhile or chatting over FB to catch up. We are close knit.

    Latinos are very affectionate, so we give kisses and hugs in our family and to other Latinos. But Americans do not pop bubbles (personal space) so easily, so we taught them to show their love through respect, care, kindness but above all we tell them constantly to think in the other person feelings. Love your neighbor as yourself, every day!

  16. Mia says

    February 10, 2014 at 7:45 pm

    Verbal affirmation and praise! 🙂

  17. Olga @The EuropeanMama says

    February 11, 2014 at 4:34 am

    Love, hugs and kisses is how we show love! Also, by our actions and words.

  18. Emma @ P is for Preschooler says

    February 11, 2014 at 4:36 am

    We have felt heart shapes and when we see someone in the family doing something we appreciate or we’re thankful for, we share a heart. 🙂

  19. Jess says

    February 11, 2014 at 5:10 am

    Appreciation is shown through acts of kindness; love is shown through physical affection. The two are interchangeable. 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway! xxx+o

    I’m in a Catalan-American family and we do lots of kissing and hugging, as well as making favorite foods 🙂

  21. Sheila Vester says

    February 11, 2014 at 8:58 am

    Typical American family (is there such a thing?!?)… Love and appreciation is shown with lots of hugs and kisses, a pat on the head or back, a gentle squeeze of the arm, words of appreciation, doing nice things for each other, and treating each other kindly.

  22. Sarah at Journeys of The Zoo says

    February 11, 2014 at 8:59 am

    We say “Hello” to everyone we pass on the street. Hugs and kisses for all family, friends and friends of friends. One thing I love about the latin culture.

    Looking forward to checking out some new blogs.

    Besos, Sarah

    Food is big, in my family and in my culture. The hardest for me was having a roommate with such strong food beliefs and claims of allergies and being unable to cook for her, or share food with her. I found other ways to express my love, but it was difficult knowing that she “could” accept the gesture but choose not to; it was a big “love languages” moment for me.

  24. Inese says

    February 11, 2014 at 2:43 pm

    In our family it is quality time spent together, also – cooking, unexpected surprises and hugs & kisses, of course. 🙂

  25. PragmaticMom says

    February 11, 2014 at 2:54 pm

    We say, “I love you!” a lot!

  26. Terry F says

  28. Dementia says

    Here in the Philippines, we bond over food a lot. Dinners, fiestas, even funerals…most milestones involve food

  29. aaron says

    February 12, 2014 at 12:11 pm

    Appreciation is shown by doing things for others. You scratch my back I’ll scratch yours.

  30. Elkhalil Kacem says

    February 12, 2014 at 1:54 pm

    Hugs and kisses.

  31. Shelley says

    February 12, 2014 at 7:54 pm

    We, Filipinos, have strong family ties. Next to God, we value our families more than anything else. Older members like grandparents stays with the family till the last days of their lives. Aside from that, we also do some gestures to show love for others like kissing on hands or forehead. We also give food to other people to appreciate the good things that they’ve done for us.

  35. Maria F. says

    February 12, 2014 at 10:24 pm

    Supporting each other in every way!

  36. Mai Tran says

    February 12, 2014 at 11:35 pm

    My parents rarely compliment on my achievement, however, I also know they’re proud by looking at their eyes and expression when they talk about me to others or just when they look at me. Their actions speak for their words, and I love them unconditionally like the way the love me 🙂

  37. Sara Trojaniello says

    February 13, 2014 at 2:17 am

    I’m Italian 🙂 We love have all the familiy together and to stay close to each one in the difficulties. We love to laugh, the respect for each other… and healthy food! 😛

  38. Barbara says

    February 13, 2014 at 6:49 am

    Love in my culture is showing by preparing a meal for a loved one. It’s the little things that count.

  39. Amanda says

    February 13, 2014 at 7:10 am

    Lot’s of phsyical affection – my kids get lots of hugs and kisses! We say “I love you” often. We started a family tradition of going to this one particular maple sugar shack (it’s the best one we’ve found). I also show my love for my family by cooking their favourite foods every so often.

  40. Piroska says

    February 13, 2014 at 7:47 am

    We’re big huggers. Also, food is a way families show love. Sitting around the dinner table, talking, laughing, sharing.

  41. Rajan says

    February 13, 2014 at 9:05 am

    Supporting each other through out life.

  42. Diana Corlett says

  49. Leanne says

    February 13, 2014 at 5:47 pm

  50. Jenny B says

    February 13, 2014 at 7:58 pm

    My 3 and 4 year old have just learned to say “I love you” spontaneously throughout the day and it is the BEST! Before that, they used the American Sign Language sign for “I love you” and would give it to me across the room sometimes. I just love hearing them say it out loud, though.

  51. kathleen Whitney says

    February 13, 2014 at 9:16 pm

    February 14, 2014 at 10:54 pm

    I’m as white as white can be. I was raised to never leave a conversation without saying “I love you.” Even now, me and my 32 year old brother yell it across rooms when we seperate. I love it.

  56. Cordelia says

    February 14, 2014 at 11:08 pm

  57. Cordelia says

    February 14, 2014 at 11:11 pm

    Oops, I forgot to answer the question! On top of the hugs and kisses, we cook for each other. Both the French and Mexicans have strong food cultures and love to show our affection through our food. (well in our families!).

  58. Amanda Sakovitz says

    February 15, 2014 at 8:50 am

    We show love through the food we make.

  61. Jayne says

    February 16, 2014 at 8:27 pm

    For Asians, physical contact is not a really a way of showing love. Parents work very hard to provide a good education, shelter, food etc as a indirect innate way of expressing love.
