Developing Resilience in Children. Workbook. Engaging CBT Activities

Developing resilience in children. Workbook. Engaging CBT activities that will help cope with stress and face difficulties. Childhood is perhaps the most vulnerable period of our lives. It is a time when we most need the support of adults and can do little to counter the stress from the outside world - whether it's a bully from school, a failing grade in math, or moving to a new city. In turn, adults often want to ensure complete safety and comfort for the child. As a result of overprotection, a child may grow up spoiled and dependent, unprepared to face problems and challenges. After all, in order to develop fully, a child must explore the world around them through trial and error. The desire of parents to protect from trauma and failure sometimes deprives them of independence, healthy curiosity, and pride in their own successes. So what should be done, is a compromise possible? This workbook is an excellent resource on child psychology for both older and younger generations. The book is based on CBT methods - cognitive-behavioral therapy - and is created to help parents raise an independent and conscious child, not deprived of love and care. It describes various life situations and offers tips in an engaging educational format on how to behave in the face of difficulties. Complete simple tasks with your child, subtly assist them if they encounter issues, and then the child will definitely figure out how to be resilient in our turbulent world.
