In today’s rapidly changing world, it’s not enough to simply memorize facts and figures. To thrive, children need to develop critical thinking skills that equip them to solve complex problems, adapt to new situations, and make informed decisions. Instead of focusing solely on what to think, it’s essential to teach kids how to think. This article explores 11 essential skills that parents can instill in their children to foster a lifelong love of learning and a strong foundation for success.

1. Teach mental models

Mental models are tools for your mind:

•Inversion

•Incentives

•First Principles

•Feynman Technique

The more tools you have, the more problems you solve.

2. Teach emotional intelligence

•Love

•Sympathy

•Politeness

•Compassion

Empathy helps you think from the other perspective, giving you a better understanding of life.
