When a Mistake Feels the End of the World 🌎…



Is this how you feel 🌍💫?


This brilliant illustration by @thecalmclassroom made me stop, pause and exhale. For this is absolutely NOT how I feel when I make a mistake. I know the same is true for many of the children I sit with 💚.


This wonderful image offers a great starting point for you to share a chat with your child 💬💙.


Together, you can wonder about:


💬💙Is this how you feel when you make a mistake? If not, how do you feel?


💬💙What types of things do you say to yourself when you make a mistake? Do these things help you? Or not?


💬💙If you chose to keep this image in your head, how might it change your feelings next time you make a mistake? Would it change what you say to yourself? In what way?


Let’s continue to create a world for our children where mistakes are as important and natural as getting things right. And let’s hold tight to the knowledge that the world will look just the same, either way🌍💫
