Written in a kid-friendly tone and grounded in cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), this guide offers a unique approach to learning and practicing the tools, strategies, and skills that make up grit.

These activities will help children:

• Build good relationships and keep perspective

   

• Be optimistic and solve problems

• And much, much more!
