Answer(s) to this Question (
1 / 2

REINFORCING A CHILDīS SELF ESTEEM
Children need to be told when they have done well, and to see your personal approval. It is not enough to simply accept their achievements, they need to be made aware that you approve in order to continue to strive to do their best. Poor self esteem can result when a child is underpraised. They may begin to feel as if their efforts are futile. There are hundreds of ways to tell your child they have done a good thing. Here are just a few: Youīre on the right track now! You are very good at that. Youīre doing a good job. I knew you could do it. Now you have it. Great! You make it look easy. Youīre getting better every day. Sensational Terrific! Much better! Outstanding! Keep it up! Good thinking! Keep on trying. I like that. Iīm very proud of you Youīre right. Clever! Thatīs Great! Way to go. Congratulations, you got it now. Thatīs right! What an improvement. You learn fast. Good for you! Excellent! Thatīs the best ever. I appreciate your hard work. Splendid! Good going! Marvelous! Youīre doing the best you can. That gives me a happy feeling.
Be a GOOD Role Model
Show the children the things you enjoy doing/learning (or are passionate about) whether it is reading books, taking classes, or trying different hobbies and crafts. If they see you enjoy learning, theyīre likely to enjoy learning, too!
