How to Encourage a Growth Mindset in Your Child
Key Strategies to Encourage Growth Mindset:
Praise the Process
π Focus: The Importance of 'Yet'
A small but powerful word, 'yet,' can transform a child's mindset and encourage positive thinking. Instead of saying, "I can't solve this math problem," encourage them to say, "I can't solve this math problem... yet."
π Key Strategies to Encourage Growth Mindset:
Praise the Process: Praise your child for their efforts, not just the outcome. For example, say, "You worked so hard!" instead of "You're so smart!"
Lead by Example: Show your child how you learn from your mistakes and face new challenges.
Explain the Science: Teach your child that our brains can grow and change through learning and practice.
Introduce New Experiences: Encourage your child to try new activities and learn new skills.
Seek Services to Help: If you have concerns about your child's skills, consider therapy services like Speech, Occupational, or Physical Therapy from TherapyWorks.
π Donβt forget: you are parent and friend, not coach
