Big kids, bigger feelings : navigating defiance, meltdowns and anxiety to raise confident, connected kids  Cover Image Book Book

Big kids, bigger feelings : navigating defiance, meltdowns and anxiety to raise confident, connected kids / Alyssa Blask Campbell with Rachel Stuart Lounder.

Summary:

"Meltdowns. Name-calling. Hitting, kicking, and hair-pulling. Except, these aren't the toddler years. Why is your elementary-school-age child still having these outbursts? Long thought of as the time when parents can finally enjoy calmer kids and deal with less emotional volatility and tears, the elementary school years are anything but. During this pivotal time, our children navigate a new set of social and emotional challenges. From playground bullying to cliques and exclusion, ever-increasing academic challenges, and plenty of physical growth and hormonal changes thrown into the mix -- the elementary school years are more complicated than most parents realize. Big Kids, Bigger Feelings is the guide you need to help your child thrive during these developmentally complex and wonderful years. The social and emotional skills you provide your children with now will prepare them for a lifetime of self-advocacy and stronger emotional intelligence. Campbell's revolutionary Collaborative Emotion Processing (CEP) method, used in preschool and elementary school environments, teaches you how to work with your children to help them understand how they are feeling and process their big emotions in healthy, constructive ways"-- Provided by publisher.
