Set clear expectations, give choices, and praise effort, not just results. Encourage their interests and model positive behavior. Consistency and genuine encouragement go a long way.
I once struggled to motivate my nephew without rewards or raising my voice. What worked was focusing on his interests and giving genuine praise for effort, not just results. Like celebrating when he tried a new puzzle piece, even if it didn’t fit yet. It made him feel proud and eager to try again. Maybe shifting the focus to their effort and passions can help your kids feel motivated from within.
