HELPING CHILDREN TO EXPLORE THEIR FEELINGS
Advice to Parents
Each book in the series includes “Notes to Parents” that provide helpful hints and advice when dealing with the feelings and emotions of children.
Children are always encouraged to ask and answer questions posed throughout the books. Dialogue is created as a means to initiate communication, and to inspire learning.
DO YOU HAVE A SECRET?
Children spend much of their time away from the security of their home, and as a result, we are not always able to be with them to ensure their safety. We can, however, introduce knowledge and encourage communication so that our children feel comfortable enough to disclose their secrets, whether they are good or bad. When children are encouraged to communicate, they will, in turn, develop the appropriate skills necessary for them to be active participants in maintaining their own safety.
Children will learn to distinguish between “good secrets” and those secrets that are necessary to disclose
A child’s ability to distinguish such information will have a positive impact on his/her ability to react appropriately
Also available in the LET’S TALK ABOUT IT! series
MY BROTHER IS AUTISTIC
This book tells the story of a boy whose brother has autism. When he becomes embarrassed by his brother’s behavior in front of friends, he asks his teacher to explain autism to the class. With the teacher’s help, the children learn about people who were able to overcome the challenges of autism and go on to do important things.
This book describes some of the realities that kids with autism and their brothers and sisters experience every day. The author encourages all children to learn patience, understanding, and tolerance when dealing with an autistic friend.
WHEN MY PARENTS FORGOT HOW TO BE FRIENDS
The purpose of this book is to acknowledge some of the concerns and anxieties your child may experience when going through a divorce in the family. Allowing your child the opportunity to explore his/her feelings and fears is the first step in the process of healing. Giving children the chance to heal by addressing some of these issues will encourage them to become a survivor of separation and divorce, rather than remaining a victim.
