Storybox Playlist: Stories for When Things Go Wrong
One of the most powerful concepts in parenting and education is the idea of “growth mindset.” It’s the strategy of encouraging children (and adults!) to shape their goals around study, practice, and training — and to base success from that delta of improvement rather that a fixed, final grade.
