How do I teach my child to think?

We can observe and be a source of aid when they are going through a task or problem and see/encourage them to be persistent and to seek help and be on task. Let the child take the lead and guide along the way - give affirmation for the positives and get them to think of alternatives instead of a negative thinking (eg. Giving up)

When you are teaching them, use guiding questions to let them get to the answer on their own, instead of immediately telling hem what it is. For all your actions/rules, explain to them your logic and thought process behind them.

Tell them to always look on the bright side and the alternative method and way to a certain situation and not dwell on the bad side of it
