Riassunto

This sensitive, empathetic activity book is perfectly designed to help children discuss and process their feelings.

Developed in consultation with professional child psychologist Dr. Katherine O'Connell, this selection of 30+ drawing, coloring and puzzle-solving activities offer a chance for all children to explore and express emotions in a safe way.

Accompanied by wonderful full-color illustrations by Mel Howells, these activities include:
• Making a list of the sounds you hear in nature
• Drawing around your hand, and writing 5 things that make you calm on the fingers
• Writing calming phrases on slips of paper and putting them in a jar to pull out when needing reassurance.

Each fun activity builds resilience, releases inner calm, improves understanding or emotions and encourages positivity. Perfect for kids age 6+.

ABOUT THE SERIES: The beautifully illustrated Thoughts and Feelings series allows children to understand and express their emotions through a series of practical activities and write-in exercises, devised by childhood development experts.

Includes 30+ activities to help children explore, express, and explain their worries.

Backed by a child clinical psychologist with years of experience of helping children with anxiety.

Traditional watercolor illustrations by Mel Howells give this book the nostalgic feel of classic children's picture books.

Anxiety and children's mental health are becoming increasingly popular topics.
