Cultivate Good Habits
Grow your tree. 🌳
Cultivate values through small good habits.
We often talk to our children & loved ones about kindness, responsibility, and gratitude.
But values are not learned through lectures.
They grow through small actions repeated every day.
Saying thank you.
Helping to set the table.
Being kind.
Tiny actions.
Repeated consistently.
Over time, those small habits quietly become values.
This thought stayed with me for a long time.
And it eventually led us to build something small.
At hrtg.me, we have been exploring ways to help families capture and pass down values and life lessons across generations.
hashtag#LittleRoots is the first digital tool we created as part of that journey.
Little Roots is a gentle family ritual tool designed for parents with young children aged 3–7.
Parents create small care tasks such as:
Put away toys
Say thank you
Help set the table
Brush your teeth
Each completed task helps the family's tree grow.
Children begin to see how their small actions contribute to the home they live in.
But the most important part is this.
Little Roots is designed to be explored together.
Instead of handing the phone to the child, the parent sits beside them, shows them the tree, and celebrates the small moments together.
One small act at a time.
If you are a parent with young children, I would love for you to try it and share your thoughts.

Little Roots is our first step at hrtg.me.
We are exploring how technology can help families nurture values today and preserve meaningful memories for the future.
A small tool, but part of a much bigger vision.

National Day Rally - Our reflections
One line from PM Lawrence Wong’s National Day Rally stayed with us: “One of the greatest gifts we can give parents is more time with their children.” More time with our children matters. But so does what we do with that time. As parents, we document so much of our children’s lives. Their first day of school. Birthdays. Family holidays. Funny videos. Thousands of photos. But how often do we document ourselves for our children? What did we believe when they were four? What were we worried...
Building Legacy in Singapore 2026
Happy National Day, Singapore! 🇸🇬❤️ As parents, we take thousands of photos of our children. Their first National Day. The playground they loved. The neighbourhood they grew up in. The food we always ate together. The little family traditions that felt completely ordinary at the time. But one day, these ordinary moments will become part of their history. Photos help us remember what happened. Stories help our loved ones understand what those moments meant. So this National Day, perhaps take...
