Childhood can often be a time of intense emotions. But if your child's emotions interfere with school, homework, or tests; alienate them from their peers; make it difficult to forge lasting friendships; or cause constant conflicts at home-it's time to make a change. You need help to calm the chaos now, rather than later.
Building on the success of Don't Let Your Emotions Run Your Life and Don't Let Your Emotions Run Your Life for Teens, this is the first dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) activity skills workbook designed especially for kids. Designed for children ages 7 to 12, this essential guide will help kids manage difficult emotions and get along better with others.
If you are frustrated or worried about your emotional child, the hands-on activities in this book-including child-friendly mindfulness practices-can help. By reading this book, kids will develop their own "skills tool box" for dealing with intense emotions as they arise, no matter where or when.
