Building Resilience in Children
What is resilience?
Resilience enables people to adapt in new environment and face challenges and hardship. We can recover, stay healthy and keep growing when we experience adversity.
What can we do to help our children grow and face adversity in life? Well-being.
And let’s have a look of the three elements in well-being along with “APP”.
A:( Accomplishment)
We cultivate children's spirit of not being afraid of difficulties and failure. By enabling children to achieve in various daily tasks, we help them gradually build the sense of accomplishment.
P:(Parent-child relationship)
Staying good connection with others enhances children’s well-being. Supportive and responsive parent-child relationship plays an important role of interpersonal relationships in early childhood.
P:(Positive Emotion)
Positive emotions help us ease the negative effects of stress. Activities that promote children’s happiness, sense of belonging and gratitude enable children to feel the positivity and hence cope better in the future.
