«Smart One. Managing Emotions» — is a set of knowledge, ideas, and tools for useful games that will help teach a child to manage their emotions, and parents to better understand their little ones and be able to negotiate with them. This means building strong, trusting relationships, avoiding tantrums and fits.
It is more challenging for young children to control their emotions and behavior than it is for adults. A little one finds it difficult to express their feelings in an acceptable way primarily because the part of their brain responsible for self-regulation is not yet fully developed. This is why small children cry when they are sad, push and kick when they are angry, scream and run away when they are scared.
For regulating their own emotions and behavior, a child needs the help of a parent.
In “Smart One”, an effective methodology has been created that helps moms and dads better understand their little ones' feelings and teaches children to express their emotions in acceptable ways. These are clear, understandable tips from psychologists on how to deal with negative feelings, how to talk about them with the child, and how to behave during children's tantrums or one's own irritation.
You will gain knowledge, dozens of ready-made games for children of different ages, and all materials for their implementation.
The “Managing Emotions” set will teach a child (0-3 years):
- To express their emotions correctly – not through yelling and tantrums, but through words and acceptable actions
- To recognize emotions (their own and those of others)
- To put themselves in someone else's shoes, to empathize
- To cope with disappointments, let go of negativity, and see more good in the surrounding world
The set includes:
- A book for parents «It's Okay to Be Angry! No Fighting!»
- A book «Cheat Sheets for Parents + Parent's Journal»
- A book for parents «Emotional First Aid Kit»
- A huge laminated double-sided game board
- A soft glove puppet Robbie
- 5 emotion toys
- 5 books about rabbit Robbie and his emotions
Parents will be able to better understand their child, see the specific reasons behind tantrums. There will be fewer fits in your family, and trusting relationships will be established.
The set “grows” along with the child, offering different games for each age. You can start from birth!
