We want our children to develop into courageous little people who will always do the right thing, even when they’re afraid. But how do you teach courage?

Or can we look for everyday opportunities in their lives to teach our children about what it means to be courageous? This video gives tips on how to help your children triumph over their fears and become courageous.
