Some kids seemed to be born perfectionist even from a very young age. They get frustrated when they make a mistake or can't do something even if they get a little dirty, they go berserk. It is incredibly important to foster a growth mindset in these very children. You need to glorify mistakes. When you make a mistake, say, “Wow! That's so interesting. So, let’s think about these mistakes.” You need to practically give a party for their mistakes and say, “Gee! That's interesting. What should we do next?” Mistakes tell us what we need to learn and what we should do next. It’s only because these children judge themselves harshly when they make a mistake and mistakes are so upsetting to them. They need to reframe mistakes as friends that helped them learn and we can help them do that. Often, a parent says, “Oh, why is my child so caught up with mistakes?” Listen to yourself. Do you say, “Oh, I was so stupid I did this.” You should glorify and celebrate mistakes in yourself and in your child. I tell parents they should sit around the dinner table and say, “Who made a fabulous mistake today?” and then every family member takes turns telling about a mistake they made and what they learned from it. You'll see how soon mistakes become something to be proud of.
