Mental Toughness for Kids (and Their Grownups) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798292023340)

Raise confident, resilient kids-without pushing too hard.

Whether your child plays travel sports, competes in local leagues, or simply wants to feel more confident and capable, Mental Toughness for Kids (and Their Grownups) is your playbook for developing inner strength, focus, and emotional resilience in kids ages 6-13.

This isn't a book filled with vague advice or overcomplicated theory. It's a practical, research-backed guide that teaches grownups how to introduce mental skills-like goal setting, self-talk, emotional regulation, and focus-in a way kids actually understand. Designed for busy families, this book makes mental performance coaching simple, fun, and immediately applicable to both sports and everyday life.

Through relatable examples, short exercises, and kid-tested techniques, parents, coaches, and mentors will learn how to:

✅ Teach confidence without pressure
✅ Support kids through nerves, frustration, and setbacks
✅ Use mindset tools to build motivation, not burnout
✅ Say the right things before and after games
✅ Create calm, focused routines before practices, tryouts, and performances

You'll also get scripts, confidence cues, reflection questions, and tools to help your child learn how to bounce back after a bad game, manage emotions, and develop real self-belief-not just temporary hype.

Written by a mental performance consultant and educator, this book speaks directly to the real-life situations families face-car rides to tournaments, big tryouts, long weekends of competition, and those tough moments when your child is discouraged or overwhelmed.

Whether you're a parent on the sidelines, a coach leading a team, or a caring adult who wants to help kids thrive under pressure, Mental Toughness for Kids (and Their Grownups) will give you the tools to build mental strength together.
