What to Do When You Feel Like Hitting - Board Book
by Cara Goodwin (Author), Katie Turner (Illustrator)
Teach toddlers safe ways to express big feelings and stop their impulse to hit, from Leading Parenting Expert and Child Psychologist Cara Goodwin, PhD
Toddlers are still learning how to speak, socialize, and understand their emotions. It's common for them to react with their hands and hit when they get frustrated--but hitting is never okay. What to Do When You Feel Like Hitting helps toddlers understand why hitting is not allowed and shows them how to react to their big feelings with actions that are safe and kind.
This colorful board book offers:
Alternatives to hitting--Kids will learn how to use "gentle hands" to squeeze a stuffed animal when they feel upset, scribble a picture to get out their frustration, and practice taking deep breaths to redirect their feelings and calm down.
A light touch--The language is kid-friendly and positive, encouraging toddlers to understand and communicate their feelings, rather than shaming them or just telling them to keep their hands to themselves.
Engaging illustrations--Colorful, inclusive pictures help kids see themselves, the strategies in action, and keep their attention on the page.
Get the best in no hitting books for toddlers with a friendly choice that helps them learn empathy and compassion.
