Wondering how you can help increase your child’s confidence? Well, you’re in the right place! Keep on reading to learn more.
The Comparison Trap
Remind your child that they have something special to offer that no one else has.
It’s common for children to compare themselves to their classmates, friends or even siblings. Every single person is unique and has their own journey. If your child ever forgets that, encourage them to practice gratitude and celebrate their victories!
Self-Care
It’s so important to take care of our mind, body and soul. Several studies show that eating well and practicing physical activity boosts confidence. What you model for your children is more powerful than what you say. Be sure you are modelling good choices.
Don’t be afraid to get the entire family involved and practice self-care as a family.
Be Kind
No one is perfect and we all experience setbacks.
The next time your child makes a mistake, encourage them to be kinder to themselves. We really do learn so many things throughout our childhood. All of those lessons and experiences will help form them into their future self.
Embrace Self-Doubt
Doing scary things is a great way to gain confidence. No matter what you want to achieve, you may never be 100% ready. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t start. In life, you never fail. You either win or you learn.
