50 therapeutic tales and games. Making friends with emotions. Fairy tale therapy for children

A collection of therapeutic tales for children aged 2-5 and their parents. The tales in the collection touch on many situations that parents and toddlers face daily.

With the help of special emotion regulation techniques, the tales in the collection help toddlers learn to cope with a variety of emotions. Emotion regulation techniques are methods embedded in simple games that can be played with a toddler anytime and anywhere. Some games can help manage acute emotions right here and now, and the child will stop being angry, crying, or being capricious. Other games have a delayed effect: they develop emotional intelligence, teach the child to listen to what they feel, and train imagination, which will help find unconventional solutions to situations in the future. The emotion regulation techniques and methodology embedded in the book were developed by an international team of psychologists.

The main idea of the methodology and collection: there are no "bad" emotions; it is normal for a person to feel any emotion, but it is important to be able to accept it and cope with it.
