CYP 3.3 6.2 Example to support resilience in children and young people

[NephRainbows]

Hiya so far I've found all the assistance I needed through older threads but this time I've come short. I need to provide what the title says but at the moment I can't think of anything at all, save encouraging a child to carry on playing chase even if they've been It for three rounds, which sounds pathetic to me and also I can't develop it into a proper paragraph. Please help me!

Hi a warm welcome in! :) I liken resilience a little to the trauma inducing Chicken Licken story (as a child it truly didn't help knowing the sky wasn't really falling in when there's a beloved book character running around in a panic saying it was!)

Bumps and scrapes, nettle stings and scratches, minibeast & animal encounters are a possible example of times young children's resilience is tested. Fear, anxiety & alarm from the carer wouldn't support their resilience. Other occasions could be when a toy is taken away from a child without their permission and how that situation is managed. Bullying and transitional times such as family changes - bereavement, parents separating, new adults, siblings, change of setting or moving home.

That's fantastic, thank you! From the examples you've given, it seems that I've already been supporting resilience in my nieces, without even knowing it!
