Helping Kids Leapfrog Difficulties
Helping Kids Leapfrog Difficulties
Whether it's going to school for the first time, making new friends or even going to school camp, children often experience difficulties that they need to overcome.
Children's resilience is fostered when they overcome problems and manage unpleasant social situations such as teasing or going into new situations. Protecting kids from challenging experiences robs them of chances to learn, develop and grow.
When children overcome problems and deal with unpleasant situations, they learn they are capable, which is the basis of self-esteem and confidence.
