Resilience is not about being happy all the time, it is not about strength, or confidence, but about how we recover from a setback, it is about the ability to overcome and try again.
Children are not born resilient, although character traits will play a part in attitude, it is something that is learned and developed through experience and from watching how those around them respond to difficulty. Healthy levels of resilience support confidence and problem solving skills as well as the ability to overcome challenges and recover from disappointment and setbacks.
Resilience can be taught at any age, it is a work in progress that we are able to support and build through the ages and stages of development, enabling children to tackle the ups and downs of life. This workshop will focus on five steps to help you develop your child’s resilience skills - I hope you will be able to join me to explore this important topic.
If you would like to reserve your place please email me on ssharp@edgegrove.com by 5.00pm on Tuesday 9th November.

With very best wishes.
