I'm the one you have shown mercy

In the academy with parents today, we learned about mistakes and how we can make a.lemonade from it.

Here, i want to share with you how you can use mistakes as a valuable skill for your child to learn from.

This activity aims to help children understand that making mistakes is a natural part of life and an important opportunity for growth.

Steps:
🎯 Create a Safe Environment for Mistakes:
Normalize Mistakes:
Start by discussing how everyone makes mistakes, including adults, and that it’s a normal part of learning and growing.

🎯 Share Personal Experiences:
Share a story from your own life where you made a mistake and learned from it. This helps your child see that even you are not perfect and that mistakes are okay.
🎯 Discuss the Value of Mistakes:
Explain the Learning Process:
Talk about how mistakes are opportunities to learn something new. For example, if they miss a question on a test, it’s a chance to review the material and understand it better.

🎯 Highlight Growth Mindset:
Encourage a growth mindset by emphasizing that intelligence and abilities can be developed through effort and learning from mistakes.
🎯 Reflect on a recent mistake:
Choose a Recent Example:
Ask your child to think about a recent mistake they made, whether it was at school, during a game, or at home.
Ask Reflective Questions:
Guide them through a reflection process with questions like:
▪︎ What happened?
▪︎ How did you feel about it?
▪︎ What did you learn from the experience?
▪︎ What could you do differently next time?

🎯 Problem-Solving Together:
Brainstorm Solutions:
Work together to come up with solutions or alternative actions they could take in a similar situation in the future.

🎯 Role-Play Scenarios:
Role-play different scenarios where they can practice handling similar situations differently. This helps them prepare and feel more confident.

Review Regularly:
Periodically review the together to see how they’re progressing and to reinforce the lessons they’ve learned.

🎯Model Healthy Responses to Mistakes:
Demonstrate How You Handle Mistakes:
When you make a mistake, talk through your process of dealing with it, including how you acknowledge it, reflect

*colour matching(they dress themselves)

*comfortability

This was how we dressed to worship the King of Kings today.

Did we meet the assessment criteria?

Please assess.

Mummy: Hello girls . Please help me and select the beans.

Twin 1-Picking these beans is too hard.

Twin 2- this quantity is OK.

Mummy: Calm down. Let me show you how to pick the beans(demonstrates selecting the beans)

Both girls manage to select the beans with complaints and murmuring.

Fast forward to another day.

Mummy: Hello girls,I need your help to select the beans.

Twin 1- Oh God. Not again

Twin 2 - oh Mummy don't you know it's hard.

Mummy: I know. But i also know you can do.

(Shares the beans equally for them)

Both quickly safeguard theirs so the other persons portion doesn't spill over.

 Mummy is smiling and thankful that the resistance was reduced. 

Funny enough, after several attempts, picking beans is not as difficult as it used to be. 

No resistance, no murmuring. Gisting while selecting the beans.

Just like these children, when the knowledge of intentional parenting got to me initially, I struggled because most of the concepts were strange to me. They were not something I was used to or even knew about.

I even querried some,maybe because of my ignorance.

Over the last few years that I started parenting intentionally, I have noticed a great change in how my children and I relate.

I am no more that grumpy, always beating, and always yelling mum that I used to be.

I have grown skills that enable me to listen to my children and relate with them as humans that they are.

I no more struggle with those concepts. 

Has it been easy? No.

Do I slip along the line ? Sometimes, because I am on a journey to becoming.

You, too, can start this journey today, or pick up from where you stopped as a result of the activities of life.

For some of you, it could be that you give intentional parenting a try from your former ways of parenting and see how it goes.

You can do this by.

🎯 Reading books on parenting. 

🎯 Enrolling in a parenting academy like Nurturenest Academy 

🎯 Following people that you admire who are/ have successfully raised thriving children.

🎯 Joining support groups and asking questions 

Thank you for your time.



 
 

Registration is ongoing into

Caller: Hello madam, How are you?
Me: I am fine, and you?
Caller: I need to know the fees to pay next term so I can prepare.
Me: Wow. It's really beneficial to plan ahead.
You will be required to pay XYZ for your children in the coming term. 

I have observed that we have different categories of parents. 

🎯Those who plan and prepare financially in terms of fees, ,books, etc.

🎯Those who don't think about resumption until resumption or some days to resumption. 

🎯Those who prepare themselve  and their children in all areas .

🎯Those who prepare the children but without resources to aid learning. 

🎯Those who prepare to fight the teachers for whatever reason and put the teachers and school in their place.

At this point, I would like to ask you, dear parents and guardians, what  group you belong to?.

Join us this month as we explore how we, as parents and our children, can actually prepare for the new class your child is entering this new academic session.
