Reddit reviews Beautiful Oops!

You might read some picture books about perfectionism with him, such as Beautiful Oops, It's Okay to Make Mistakes, or Ish. Try discussing how the book relates to his experiences, and whether he thinks it might be okay for him to make mistakes too. Then you have something to reference when he's struggling with homework or other things.

Oh, I <3 looking for books for my kids!! They are 14, 13, 12, 11, and 5. Our son is the youngest, and he loves all the books that his older sisters loved when they were younger. :D

  /u/DrUsual...can you think of any?
  
  Thank you for the contest!

Sounds like you're doing fine, the newborn is probably taking a lot in and as long as you're meeting her needs and find time to make her happy I think you're doing all that you need in regards to her care.

As for the older children, especially the 4 year old, it would benefit her to learn that you won't bring things everyday, how to manage her frustrations (know when she needs to take a break), and how to play by herself for a little bit.

Learning how to see mistakes differently may help her too

What time do you get there during the day? Are you allowed to take them out of the house? Are they signed up for any activities? When do the older children get home?

This reminds me of a book we bought for our kids years ago. It's called "Beautiful Oops" and encourages making the most out of mistakes just like this one through art.
