Positive Affirmations for Children
I’m no psychologist but life experience has taught me that positive words can inspire, uplift, and give hope. With the recent wave of violence, it is more important now than ever that we become intentional on the words we use with our children.
To help promote self-confidence and provide a nurturing environment, I wrote the affirmations below for my 9-year-old son. It’s taped on the wall near his bedroom door and before he starts the day, he says them, loud and proud. Affirmations are positive statements that are repeated which can challenge negative thoughts and help make positive changes.
