Resilience is a skill children can practice early. Not just something you "either have or don't have," but rather a muscle that can be trained in small moments that add up.
That's why I'm excited about a new set of free, research-informed resources created by Sesame Workshop and funded through the Morgan Stanley Alliance for Children's Mental Health.
It includes an original "R is for Resilience" video with Grover, plus storybooks, songs, and simple tools that help parents and caregivers talk about feelings in a way young children actually understand.
The goal is to normalize emotions, build language around them, and give adults practical ways to support kids as they grow.
If you're a parent, caregiver, educator, or you simply care about children's well-being, this is an exciting new initiative.
