Healthy self-esteem and a positive attitude allow children to feel good about who they are and to believe in themselves. Children with healthy self-esteem are more likely to try new things and pick themselves up and bounce back after a challenging life experience. We know that life can challenge our children in so many ways, lost friendships, changes in family circumstances, illness, financial challenges and so much more. Having personal power and resilience are valuable personal attributes for your children to have throughout their school years and beyond.
