Confession time: I have put my kids’ artwork in the bin.
Let’s face it, we can’t keep everything they do, and not everything they do will be successful or, in your opinion, praise-worthy.
But praise isn’t just about the outcome; it’s not about winning or losing. Praise, when used at the right time and in the right way, can be super powerful at building confident, resilient children.
In this bucket emptying episode, I’m going to share five ways that you can give praise that will nurture skills, build character, and help you raise children who don’t fear failure and feel supported to try anything.
So find a comfy seat, pour yourself a cuppa and enjoy the conversation…
