Strategies to Promote Resilience in Children 

Please see the below link for a great resource that Learning Links have put together with some very practical strategies for how we can help our children to build resilience - 

https://www.learninglinks.org.au/resources/resilience-in-children/

Learning Links describes resilience as ‘a person’s ability to manage adversity and bounce back from difficult life events. When a child overcomes a challenge, they develop a sense of achievement. This success helps children to build confidence in their own strengths and prepares them to face future bigger challenges’.

Justin Coulson, on his ‘Happy Families’ website has a whole section on Resilience in Children including links to including articles, books, podcasts, webinars -
