The Mindful Kids Activity Book: 60 Playful Projects, Games, and Exercises to Make Friends with Your Feelings

An adorable activity book to help kids (ages 3-7) learn about anger, anxiety, and stress and how to deal with these challenging emotions.

Bailey the Bear can get ever-so angry. Katie the Kangaroo often finds it hard to concentrate. And Ricky the Rabbit's mind is always busy! Every child can relate to these experiences of losing emotional control. Follow Bailey, Katie, and Ricky as they learn to understand their feelings and gain the resources to express themselves through mindful play.

Bright and cheerful illustrations present a variety of mazes, puzzles, collages, and coloring activities to uncover ways for kids to process their anger, anxiety, and stress. By following the critters' narratives--and playing the fun games sprinkled throughout--your child will learn how they can calm their anger, concentrate, and relax--healthier and happier alternatives to letting big feelings get the best of them.

Answer keys for all the puzzles and activities are included at the end of each section of the book.
