Being humble isn’t about hiding strengths — it’s about respecting and not putting others down. In a world that celebrates competition, humility can feel quiet or overlooked. However, it’s a powerful trait that promotes respect, understanding, and stronger relationships when practiced intentionally.
The Humility Worksheets include two meaningful worksheet pages. Developing a Humble Mindset helps users spot the difference between humble and prideful actions by looking at everyday examples. Practicing Humility invites them to identify arrogant versus humble behavior, explore the benefits of humility, and practice changing boastful thoughts to humble thoughts.
After completing these pages, kids and teens may start to notice how their words and choices reflect their mindset. A helpful habit is to pause in moments when they feel the urge to be “right” — and ask, “What would humility look like right now?”
These worksheets can be paired with our All About Being Humble handout to enhance learning of the concept.
