The Kids’ Books of Social and Emotional Learning
Storytime is a great opportunity to help foster your children’s emotional and social skills and support their wellbeing.
The Kids’ Books of Social and Emotional Learning series is designed just for that purpose. Each focuses on a particular topic, such as friendship, diversity or love. All the books in the series:
- Help kids begin to recognise when they feel angry, sad, disappointed or happy, and begin to learn ways of managing feelings.
- Promote self-esteem and encourage children to love who they are.
- Highlight the importance of being kind to others. Feeling and showing empathy for others. Sharing, and respecting others
- Aid children in making responsible and caring decisions about their own behavior and social interactions.
- Illustrate the social skills that enable meaningful and supportive relationships with others, like healthy communication, boundaries, and dealing with conflict.
- Celebrate community, the diversity in our world, the importance of looking after each other and working together, as well as looking after our planet.
These messages are presented in an attractive and accessible format of fun illustrations and simple messages. They are ideal for parents, teachers or anybody working with children to start up conversations with children at reading time, and encouraging them to share their day-to-day experiences and emotions.
