Picture Books for Helping Kids With Anger
Books can be valuable resources in teaching children anger management skills, which is important for their brain development and social integration.
Children’s Picture Books for Emotional Intelligence
I am obsessed with children’s picture books! We have a huge collection (one of the things that I am a maximalist about) and we love to read them. I grew up with lots of books and found them very comforting.
While I have been able to make the shift to e-books for adult books, children’s picture books are different. They have a magic about them that can’t be conveyed on a screen. I love holding the book in my hands and offering my children the same gift. My kids have loved picking out books from the shelf and turning the pages as we read.
Reading from a children’s book is a multi-sensory experience that can’t be replaced.
Despite their seemingly simple text and pictures, picture books can have incredibly complex messages and lessons. In this category, you will find picture books that help with adjusting to school, feeling different, or dealing with anxiety or anger. There are also books on teaching children about identifying feelings, mindfulness, and yoga. I hope that you will find these books helpful in teaching your kids self-regulation and building up their self-esteem and appreciation of others.
