What is a growth mindset?
According to Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck, a growth mindset is the belief that a person's capacities and talents can be improved over time. If your child says things like "I can't do this", "It's too hard", "I'm not good at this", then you can teach them growth mindset strategies that will help.

The question is: how? How can we teach our kids how to believe in themselves and develop a growth mindset? There are a number of ways:
