Building childrens confidence

Always praise them. Even when they did something not quite right find something good in it and praise that before explaining that they could have done the wrong part another way (the right way). Depends on the age of the child to give an example. If when laying the table they drop a fork on the floor. Don't bawl at them for the dropped fork praise them for laying the table and suggest they make a pile of all the cutlery and move only one piece at once. Giving them small chores to do that they can manage and awarding stickers or something will make them feel good about themselves.

My daughter is independent. Very! So, I try to make sure that she does things for herself whenever possible. If i try to do things for her, she gets frustrated. Give good instructions on how to do something. Demonstrate how to do the task. Then let the child do the task by themselves, and they will master the task. That's my tip.

praise and a lot of it when they do good also, words like you can do it, just try, and not putting them down when they are scared to do things. Knowing you will be there and love them no matter what. Working with tem when scared to do new things. always worked for me.

My mother did this with me to build my confidence . . . gave me plenty of room to pass or fail in any given situation, using enough cajoling and a little belittling to make me see what I did was for the right or wrong reasons, never bashing just wholeheartedly disciplining . . . and still to this day I might add, but she always means well.
