In a world of instant solutions, many children struggle to persist when faced with challenges. Instead of problem-solving, they often turn to adults to step in, missing vital opportunities to develop resilience and independence. This webinar will explore practical strategies for helping children embrace discomfort as part of the learning process. Participants will learn how to support children in weighing options and making independent decisions, encourage curiosity through thoughtful questioning, model perseverance in everyday life and provide validation and guidance without taking over.

Join us for an engaging session filled with actionable tools you can use right away to help children grow into confident, capable problem solvers who don’t shy away from challenges.
