What happens when my 4-year-old son believes he can fix a broken train? Or when Alex's son gets asked to design planets for his nursery?

We let them try - and discover the confidence-competence cycle in action.

In this episode we explore how these "successful" moments create evidence their ideas work, why confidence builds neural pathways for learning, and how today's pretend fixes and planet designs could spark tomorrow's real passions.

Stop seeing your childrens' wild ideas as entertainment.

When you say "yes, and..." you're building real competence.

Your job is to fuel their belief that their ideas matter.

From train repairs to planet designs - every creative moment is building future problem-solvers.
