Self-Esteem Worksheets for Kids and Teens

























Building self-esteem can be challenging, especially during moments of self-doubt and uncertainty. However, it remains important for developing confidence and resilience in young clients. They need strong self-esteem to prepare them to handle challenges better and grow into mentally healthy adults.
The Self-Esteem Worksheets for Kids and Teens are a set of worksheets designed to boost self-confidence. They includes 20 worksheets combined to help clients understand themselves, including their strengths and weaknesses. This bundle features a daily journal, checklists, a skills tracker, and daily check-ins to give them ideas on basic self-care and how they can deal with the negativities in life.
Completing these worksheets can build a strong foundation for genuine and healthy self-esteem that young people can carry with them throughout their lives. As they learn more about themselves, they can start investing in their own self-worth by setting personal goals, practicing positive self-talk, and celebrating their successes.
Teachers and parents can incorporate these worksheets into classroom activities or after-school programs. Through group discussions, they can further create a supportive space where young people feel encouraged to share their thoughts and progress with others.

This resource was a really good find! I will be using different parts of it for SEL classroom lessons in 5th-8th grades.
Thank you, Kate!
These well organized and informative color worksheets add a fun element to teaching children and adolescents about mental health.
Thank you, Kadane!
The worksheets I downloaded from Mental Health Center Kids have been a lifesaver from having to re-create something similar to work with with elementary students at my school. Great resource!
We're so glad to hear our worksheets have saved you time and energy, Erin! Supporting elementary school professionals like you is exactly why we created these resources.
