I tell my children how good they are at the small things. Nothing builds like positively awesome praise!

Dove has a great program, we’ve been using Dove since the day I was born, it’s the only soap my dad will use!

I agree, Lisa – I love that they’ve made the toolkit available for people to download.

That’s a great point, Kerrie – challenges don’t mean weaknesses, they’re just opportunities for learning.

That is a great piece of advice, Diane! It’s easy to forget how off-putting new things can be for kids.

Self esteem is so vitally important! There is just so much in the world that affects our self esteem. Raising kids with a strong sense of self is so important to me and something I work on daily. I try to emphasize my children’s strengths and also let them know that their challenges are just that, challenges, not weaknesses.
