Children, especially when they are in their formative years, are in constant need of being recognized for the effort they have been putting. You need to boost confidence, self-esteem in children, but they are not aware of it.
Self-esteem has a relationship with psychology. Most of the socialization rules are unwritten; children learn about social cues by a process named ‘mirroring.’ This is observing and imitating certain adult behaviours. The amount of recognition they get is directly proportional to the boosted self-esteem. So the central concept here is Self- esteem. The million-dollar question will be how we can raise the self-esteem of children? Kids who feel good about themselves have the confidence to try new things. They are more likely to try their best & be proud of themselves. Self-esteem in children helps to cope with mistakes.
Have you noticed your children’s behavior? They will be full of questions, like why the sky is all blue, why the seas are of that color, why it doesn’t rain much during the summertime, why birds fly, etc.
These questions reveal their constant intellectual curiosity about knowing better about the world around them. Sometimes it’s challenging to answer all the questions, as it’s tough to quench children’s intellectual curiosities.
What should parents be doing ideally in such a situation? They should teach a logical mindset in children. They should explain the scientific reasons behind all the phenomena’s that caught the eye of the child.
Children are different. When you force them to study something, they will start hating those particular subjects. They should develop the urge to learn and know by themselves else, and they will never even try to unravel the simple mundane things; this can be a starting point to self-esteem in child development.
It is useful if you can take a middle way approach and explain them like a friend. Tell them about the importance of studying and the pleasures involved in it.
Most of the children would like such an approach. This is also a sign of healthy, building confidence and self-esteem in your children.
Reading can be construed as a purely aesthetical activity. Not only to develop healthy self-esteem, but it is considered a noble habit.
It can act as an intellectual stimulus, giving wings to children’s imagination so that they can soar high. To do this, one must understand the genre the child likes and suggest books. If the child wants a bit of an adventure, make him read one thousand and one nights, where he can fly on the magic carpet with Aladdin and go on voyages with Sinbad, the sailor. You can also suggest authors like Roald Dahl (Charlie and the chocolate factory), E.B.White (Charlotte’s web), C.S.Lewis (The Chronicles of Narnia), etc.
You can also suggest books by Indian authors such as Ruskin Bond and R.K. Narayan ( Malgudi days and moral fables such as Aesop fables, The Jataka Tales, and The Panchatantra. Reading will improve the creativity of children and should be encouraged. For confidence, kids can always turn towards a good book.
Art has no form, no limitations, and no rules, but in a way, it induces a lot of self-confidence, and performing capability in a child.
Self-esteem for a child is crucial, and sports and games or indulging in creative activities can be an avid source for them.
Involving in sports activities can also be of help in developing healthy self-esteem. It would manifest the feeling of worthiness in children, and they would begin to perceive the school environment more positively.
Self-esteem in child development is necessary as children are our future. Their guardians, parents, and teachers must herald them into a glorious future.
