Challenges for kids could be as simple as starting at a new school or as big as divorce or the death of a parent. Understanding why some children bounce back from difficult situations while others remain stuck can help parents and caregivers nurture the tools children need for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Children who develop resilience are more likely to become healthy, productive adults. So it\u2019s good news that children can learn to bounce back from adversity. This blog will help define resilience, discuss why it\u2019s essential to child development, and present ideas for parents wishing to foster this life-supporting skill in their children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is Resilience?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/developingchild.harvard.edu\/resources\/inbrief-what-is-resilience\/\">Resilience is the ability<\/a> to do well despite encountering difficult times. These obstacles could be difficulty in school, changes in family dynamics, life transitions, living in poverty, or experiencing trauma or violence in the home or community. Resilient people share specific characteristics, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>High self-esteem.<\/li><li>well-developed problem-solving skills<\/li><li>a variety of coping skills.<\/li><li>Supportive relationships and social supports<\/li><li>Self-efficacy: the belief that they are capable of success.<\/li><li>Self-regulation of emotions.<\/li><li>Strong social skills<\/li><li>Optimistic views of life<\/li><li>Ability to plan and stay motivated<\/li><li>Ability to self-monitor emotions and engage in positive-thinking<\/li><li>Willingness to engage in exercise<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since resilience is a skill, there are things parents and caregivers can do to support children as they learn to navigate times of stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Are the Benefits of Developing Resilience in Early Childhood?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min-768x307.jpg 768w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min-18x7.jpg 18w\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"graphic with the word resilience\" class=\"wp-image-4550 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min.jpg\" alt=\"graphic with the word resilience\" class=\"wp-image-4550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min-768x307.jpg 768w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1890857854-min-18x7.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The healthy development of young children involves plenty of opportunities for cultivating adaptation skills.

Because of neuroplasticity, we can influence a child\u2019s resilience. Early-childhood educators and parents are uniquely positioned to influence the development of resilience. This section will detail several strategies for promoting resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Establish Structure and Routines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min.jpg 750w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min-18x12.jpg 18w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"mom holidng daughter and reading something\" class=\"wp-image-4547 lazyload\"    sizes=\"(max-width: 324px) 100vw, 324px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min.jpg\" alt=\"mom holidng daughter and reading something\" class=\"wp-image-4547\" width=\"324\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min.jpg 750w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1755913685-min-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 324px) 100vw, 324px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">children thrive when they know what caregivers expect of them and what they can expect. Sticking to routines as much as possible helps children manage times of stress because there is less overall chaos than if routines aren\u2019t present. Establish routines for bedtime, mornings, mealtimes, and family traditions in your home. As children age, you\u2019ll need routines for completing homework,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Changes in routines are inevitable, though, so be sure to let your child know when things change, the reason for the change, and when they can expect things to return to normal. For example, if you relax expectations while on vacation, it\u2019s important to explain that this is a temporary change. You&#8217;ll resume their typical bedtime rituals when you return to a standard home schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Ensure Each Child Has a Supportive Adult<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Children&#8217;s most significant predictor of resilience is having at least one stable relationship with a parent, caregiver, or another adult. This relationship provides children with responsiveness, scaffolding, and protection as they manage daily stressors. The adult who provides this strong relationship could be a parent, but often it\u2019s a teacher, aunt, uncle, or grandparent. In many families, children have many role models to rely on in tough times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Develop Supportive Peer Relationships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Relationships with peers help children navigate stressors at school when family members aren\u2019t available. These friends help children feel connected, develop problem-solving skills, and improve your child\u2019s ability to communicate well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Talk About Emotions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min.jpg 750w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min-16x12.jpg 16w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"family with different colored shirts jumping in excitement\" class=\"wp-image-4548 lazyload\"    sizes=\"(max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min.jpg\" alt=\"family with different colored shirts jumping in excitement\" class=\"wp-image-4548\" width=\"333\" height=\"247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min.jpg 750w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_1906575775-min-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Resilient children can experience powerful emotions without letting them derail their day. They may feel angry or anxious about a change in routine but can recover quickly. To process emotions quickly, children need to learn how to identify and manage them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parents can help by discussing emotions when they come up and modeling healthy coping. For example, if you spill your morning coffee and shout, try saying aloud, \u201cWhen I spill my coffee, I feel frustrated. I need to take a deep breath and remember that a spill is easy to clean up.\u201d Discuss how characters in books and movies feel and examples of characters showing self-control. When your child reports something that happened during their school day, encourage them to tell you how it made them feel. Praise your child when they demonstrate self-control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Encourage Playfulness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Play is any activity you engage in for enjoyment. Play and stress cannot coexist. When children spend most of their time playing, they have lower stress levels and more opportunities to develop resilience. In addition, playtime presents unique challenges\u2014adults who remain playful report less stress and greater resilience than those who stop playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Avoid Exposure to Trauma<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/en\/unconscious-ways-you-may-be-responding-to-trauma\/\">Trauma reduces<\/a> children\u2019s ability to handle difficult life situations. Traumatic situations can overwhelm a child\u2019s ability to adapt, making it difficult to recover from the trauma. Avoid exposing children to trauma such as domestic violence or community violence. When children experience trauma, they must process it with loving caregivers and appropriate psychological support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Don\u2019t Give Children Adult Responsibilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PArentificiation describes children who take responsibility for household tasks that are too advanced for their age. It&#8217;s appropriate for children to help with household chores &#8211; this can enhance resilience. But children shouldn\u2019t be responsible for all of the cooking and cleaning in a household. They shouldn\u2019t be primary carers for younger siblings or act as caregivers or counselors to parents struggling with mental illness or substance abuse. Parentification interrupts the normal development of children and lowers their ability to adapt to stressors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Let children Manage Age-appropriate Challenges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min.jpg 750w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min-18x12.jpg 18w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"group of kids looking down at the camera smiling\" class=\"wp-image-4549 lazyload\"    sizes=\"(max-width: 303px) 100vw, 303px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min.jpg\" alt=\"group of kids looking down at the camera smiling\" class=\"wp-image-4549\" width=\"303\" height=\"203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min.jpg 750w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/shutterstock_735971851-min-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 303px) 100vw, 303px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When a toddler struggles to put shapes in a sorter or a kindergartener struggles to form the letter M it\u2019s common for parents to want to jump in and do it for them. However, allowing your child to experience some frustration and learn to tackle the problem from different angles can increase their resilience. Rushing to rescue them teaches children that frustration should be avoided instead of worked through and can lower their tolerance for it in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than jump in and take over, try watching from a distance as your child tries again and again. If they ask for help, prompt them to name their feeling and give scaffolding, such as a starting place for forming the letter or encouraging them to try the blocks from different angles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Work With a Mental Health Professional To Develop Resilience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your child struggles to adapt to new situations and you want assistance fostering resilience, a trained therapist may be able to help. Using cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, art therapy, and more, therapists can help your child and family develop new strategies for overcoming obstacles. At SMPsychotherapy, we have several providers available to work with children and families on various issues that can help children process trauma, overcome adversity, and grow into emotionally healthy adults. <a href=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/en\/contact\/\">Reach out today<\/a> to schedule an appointment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tips For Building Resilience in Early Childhood Why do some children do well despite adversity, and others struggle to handle daily stressors?
