Shape matching persistence
2–3 岁Success Mindset所需材料：Shape sorter toy
Or a box with holes cut in different shapes and corresponding objects
Use a shape sorter toy or create one with a box and cut holes. Give your child shapes to match and insert. This involves trial and error as they try different orientations and holes. When they get frustrated, acknowledge it: 'That one is tricky.' Then wait before helping, giving them the chance to try another approach. Stay close and encouraging, but let them problem-solve through the challenge.

为什么有效
Problem-solving through trial and error with appropriate challenges builds the perseverance component of grit. Studies show that grit predicts positive educational outcomes including achievement and talent development (Credé et al., 2017). When children work through shape-matching challenges, experiencing failure and then success through their own persistence, they internalize that effort leads to mastery, a foundational belief for developing grit.
家长小贴士
Start with just two or three different shapes to keep frustration manageable.
Notice their strategies aloud: 'You tried it this way, and now you're turning it.'
If they're truly stuck for a while, you can help orient one shape while they push it through, maintaining their active role.
