Having positive self-esteem is vital for mental health. It helps young people like kids and teens become more resilient and able to handle stress in their lives. By becoming aware of self-esteem issues, young people can work towards improving it, such as gaining a new skill or helping others.
This worksheet is an opportunity for kids and teens to rate specific items that are related to their self-esteem — for example, being proud of their accomplishments or handling criticism. After rating these 15 items, ask them to write down some steps they can take to improve their self-esteem or things they are currently doing that make them feel confident.
