The magic three-letter word

Hi, Henry! 👋

Hi, Jack! 👋

Today we learn a
secret word.

Have you ever said…

“I CAN’T!”

A small child on the floor concentrating hard on tying a shoe, laces a tangled mess, tongue sticking out slightly in concentration, warm and non-judgmental

“I can’t tie
my shoes!”

“I can’t read
this word!” 📖

“I can’t do the
monkey bars!” 🐒

But here’s the secret.

One little word changes
everything.

Y

E

T

Yet.

“I can’t tie my shoes…

…YET.”

“I can’t read this word…

…YET.”

“I can’t do the monkey bars…

…YET.”

See what happened?

“I can’t” means stuck.

“Not yet” means
I’m still learning.

Your brain grows
when you try hard things.

It feels…

a little tricky. 🤔

a little tingly. ✨

a little hard. 💪

That’s the growing part!

So next time
you want to say “I can’t”…

Say:

“Not… YET.”

You are a brain-grower,
Henry.

You are a brain-grower,
Jack.

Keep trying. Keep growing. 🌱
