The end of year ceremonies and prizegivings can be hard for some children as they watch friends, classmates and siblings carry off prizes when they know they have worked hard too and done their best. Doing things for their own reward is a concept we learn as we grow older. While children are young, we can help them develop and grow by placing the focus on their strengths, the greatest of which are qualities of character because they are what will see them through the challenges of life.
