Resilience: Try, Try Again

Grit involves sticking with something until you succeed. It’s another word for perseverance and resilience, and it gives us the strength to try, try, try again. Grit supports a “growth mindset” ― a belief that our intelligence and skills can grow with effort. Kids with a growth mindset thrive on challenges, show resilience in the face of obstacles, and view failure as part of the learning process. For a three-year-old, grit might look like learning how to dress themselves, working on a challenging puzzle, and remembering to use their words and strategies when they feel frustrated.
