Overview
How do we teach kids about emotions and feelings?
Openly, honestly, and using terminology that we can incorporate into our everyday conversations with our kids.
This book is a fabulous educational resource that uses colors and the emotional "up and downs" in every day to talk about how to understand and identify emotions - and why that's so important.
Identifying emotions and where they're felt in the body is a vital skill for kids and adults alike and is the first step toward emotional regulation.
This is important book is the first in Mighty + Bright's highly anticipated "Emotions" series, and introduces the concept of emotional regulation.
This book explains the emotional experience in an easy-to-understand way and incorporates scientific findings such as "Name it to Tame it," the Window of Tolerance (developed by Dr. Dan Siegel, MD, co-author of "The Whole Brain Child"), and the Zones of Regulation, an educational method used in many schools.
This book covers:
- The role our bodies and brains play in emotion;
- The purpose of emotion in our lives, and the concept of high energy emotions (like anger or anxiety) and low energy emotions (like sadness or depression);
- The desire for unpleasant emotions to go away, and why they're helpful;
- Why emotions happen, including how our thoughts can cause them;
- The benefit of naming our emotions;
- How to begin understanding our own emotional experience;
- Common worries about BIG emotions and how to safely cope with them;
- Different people's different reactions to the same experience;
- An opening to discuss anxiety and depression with kids;
- The idea that no day is all "good" or all "bad."
