Growth Mindset Posters From Children’s Books

Decorate your home, playroom, or classroom with these beautiful growth mindset posters of quotes from beloved children’s books.

Mindsets are your beliefs. A growth mindset is believing that you can change and cultivate your intelligence, talents, and personality. It’s about learning to persist, fail, try again and again, and redefine what success is.

It’s the difference between being a learner or not. (Incidentally, I think being a learner is an essential ingredient in a life partner.)

“If parents want to give their children a gift, the best thing they can do is to teach their children to love challenges, be intrigued by mistakes, enjoy effort, and keep on learning.”  – Carol Dweck
