Have you ever wondered why some kids give up easily or refuse to try, while others embrace challenges and seem destined to achieve more? Today on our blog we're talking about how having a "growth mindset" can help girls embrace challenges: hopscotchgirls.com/updates-f…

Happy 2020!!! Is anyone else making new year's resolutions this year? We’ve been thinking about small things we can do to help girls be even more amazing. For more info, check out our blog at hopscotchgirls.com.

***Don't miss out on getting your gifts in time for Christmas!*** Amazon says the last day for Prime members to order gifts is 12/22, but postal delays caused some orders to be delivered after Christmas last year. So don’t wait until it’s too late!

Today on the Hopscotch Girls blog we're talking about kindness. We love the idea of using kindness activities to teach girls that strength and kindness are not mutually exclusive. hopscotchgirls.com/updates-f… #kindness #girlpower

Today we're sending out love/support to everyone that's got a dream, but is nervous about doing it. If you really want it, do it! We're all about empowering girls and one way you can do this is by empowering yourself! It sounds funny, but role models can be incredibly powerful.

Christmas is getting closer!!! We hope you'll consider getting the special girl in your life a Hopscotch Girls book. Our books #empowergirls, use positive female role models, encourage a #healthybodyimage & are affordable. Available on Amazon. Free shipping w/Prime. 💖 #girlpower

When it comes to #coloring, do you or your little ones have a favorite medium? #crayons, #markers, #gelpens, colored pencils, watercolor pencils, pastels? We ❤️ the intensity of gel pens (+they come in glitter colors). #coloringbook #artsupplies #coloredpencil

This is us realizing there’s going to be another Wonder Woman movie. How did we not know about this until now???

Our ideal weekend: lounge/read, repeat.

If you're looking for a fun winter STEAM project to do with kids, try making paper snowflakes. You can keep it basic for littler girls, or get more into symmetry, crystal formation, etc. More info from Kids Steam Lab at hgirls.co/snowflake.

Have you ever heard someone say that #children need #books that are windows and mirrors? Mirrors allow #kids to see themselves/their families in them. Windows give kids a view of the wider world. Something we take to ❤️ w/all of our projects. #kidlit #parenting #girlpower

Had to share this excerpt from a review we received recently for "I Am Confident, Brave & Beautiful: A Coloring Book for Girls" So proud and honored that these 5th grade girls enjoy the book, and special thank you to the #teacher that shared this amazing moment!

Neuroimaging study shows "no differences in the brain development of girls and boys, and no differences in how they processed math... Society and culture steer girls and young women away from math and #STEM fields." Let's do something about that! hgirls.co/neuro
