A child who raises their hand and speaks confidently in class! 🙋♂️
How can we help our children be more proactive and self-assured?
"It's okay to make mistakes, it's okay not to be first!"
Building a child's healthy self-esteem and confidence is more important than anything else!
Pinkfong Plus has prepared three easy tips that parents can practice anytime, anywhere. ✅
Ways to Boost Your Child’s Self-Esteem!
Express emotions accurately instead of pointing out mistakes
When your child makes a mistake, try expressing your feelings instead of scolding them right away.
✅ ❌ "Why did you do that?" → ✅ "Mom is a little worried about this."
✅ ❌ "I’m upset because you didn’t listen." → ✅ "Mom felt surprised and hurt when you did that." Children need to understand their parents’ emotions so that discipline becomes a learning experience rather than a wound.
Be firm, but also make sure your child knows they are loved. 💖
Discipline should never be confused with a lack of love. Children need to feel their parents’ love is unwavering. This way, they can trust their parents and feel secure.
Choose your words carefully before speaking
Among the 100 billion neurons in our brain, 98% constantly change through the words we exchange. Especially for growing children whose brains are still developing, conversations with parents shape their self-perception.
💡 Could these words be hurting your child’s self-esteem?
✅ ❌ "Why are you so slow?" → ✅ "It's okay to take your time."
✅ ❌ "This isn’t hard, why can’t you do it?" → ✅ "If you keep practicing little by little, you’ll get better!"
A parent's words can be the key to building a child's confidence and positive mindset!
Speak words of love that children long to hear
Children grow up feeling loved through their parents' words.
Even when they are being a little difficult, make sure to express love and encouragement often.
💖 "Mom and Dad love you so much!"
💖 "Thank you for doing that!"
💖 "You can do it! We are cheering for you!"
Even a simple phrase like this can give your child incredible strength. 🌱✨
