Healthy mindsets for little kids

Dr Stephanie Azri ; illustrated by Sid Azri ; consultant: Claire Kelly

a resilience programme to help children aged 5-9 with anger, anxiety, attachment, body image, conflict, discipline, empathy and self-esteem

This flexible, early-intervention programme utilises hands-on activities and worksheets to address behaviour issues and teach core resilience skills in children aged 5-9. Based around ten guided modules, each with their own animal character, the 'Healthy Mindsets' approach helps adults to assist children in building resilience across a wide variety of themes including attachment, discipline, anger management, conflict resolution, positive body image and self-esteem, grief and loss, and anxiety. Every session comes with a complete plan from greeting to closing down, and includes illustrations, photocopiable activities, website-downloadable content, worksheets, games, colouring-in sheets, and reflective content for children to think about their own views on the issue addressed in each section
