Bol What is the difference between saying you tried and actually getting the job done? Hildy tries to remember to clean her room, but night after night she forgets and the room remains messy. Mimi explains the important difference between trying and doing by comparing effort with achievement, then gives Hildy a memorable image: an empty dinner plate. Hildy uses the mental picture to remind herself that intending to do something and actually doing it are not the same, and she gets up and cleans her room. Mimi's Strategy: "Before you get into your bed at night, I want you to STOP and picture in your mind an empty dinner plate on the table in front of you." What children will learn: • Distinguish effort from completed results. • Understand that intentions do not replace finished responsibilities. • Practice using a mental reminder to follow through on tasks. • Build a practical habit of completing what has been started. Perfect for: • Homeschool and public-school families teaching responsibility and follow-through. • Homeschool and public-school educators discussing effort, achievement, and work habits. • Parents who want to turn repeated reminders into independent action. • Grandparents looking for a simple lesson about getting things done. Part of the growing Mimi's Strategy series, an expanding collection of illustrated books by Linda Goudsmit that turn everyday childhood problems into opportunities to stop, think, and choose a successful strategy to solve each problem. Designed for ages 3-8, the series gives families and educators a warm, repeatable way to talk about responsibility, independence, competence, self-control, critical thinking, and family life. "Learning to think strategically rather than react emotionally is a valuable skill that will empower any child throughout his or her life. Plus, I have yet to meet the child who would prefer a reprimand to a kiss." - Linda Goudsmit
