Dear Parents,
Have you ever wondered how best to prepare your child for success in the future?
Research has shown that what determines future success is not knowledge or talent alone.
In fact, a common thread runs through the world’s most successful people, ranging from top athletes like Jordan Spieth to famous entrepreneurs like Jack Ma and Mark Zuckerberg, helping them attain desirable results in spite of setbacks and uncertainties. They all start honing their craft and developing positive thinking habits, early in life.
A report by Cambridge University on habit formation shows that young children often develop key habits before the age of seven. How then, as a parent of a preschooler, can you help your young ones build the right habits that will accompany them throughout their lives?
We are pleased to bring to you a special event under the Mulberry Parent Series this coming July. We have invited two distinguished speakers, Dr Henry Toi and Ms Eliza Leong, to share how to build positive mental habits and emotional resilience in your children.
