Create a list with your child or children of times they used a growth mindset in order to learn something new (e.g. riding a bike, learning the letters of the alphabet, learning how to dribble, learning how to add, learning how to shade while drawing, etc.).  Feel free to create your own list of times when you showed a growth mindset as it is always helpful for children to realize that adults need to use a growth mindset in order to make their brains smarter and stronger as well!  Keep this list somewhere safe and add to it as you and your child fail, persevere, and eventually accomplish many different things!

Use the Power of Yet within the home setting by adding the magic word of "...yet" to the end of any self-defeating sentence (for both parents and children).  For example, instead of saying, "I can't do this math problem," say, "I can't do this math problem...yet!"
