I believe resilience is about teaching children to handle challenges, adapt to change, and recover from setbacks while respecting their emotions. We can model resilience by demonstrating healthy coping skills, fostering a growth mindset, and helping children develop emotional awareness and problem-solving abilities. By supporting them through difficulties and validating their feelings, we empower children to face life's challenges with confidence!
I discuss:
- How to model resilience and demonstrate healthy coping skills
- That it’s important to encourage children to embrace their feelings
- The need to promote problem-solving and support by allowing children to tackle challenges independently, while offering guidance and reassurance.
