Learning to look after yourself is an important part of growing up, and it can also be fun! By being mindful of their mental, physical and social wellbeing, children can be more confident in navigating tricky situations and new experiences. Whether it is taking care of their senses, learning about respect or unwinding when they feel overwhelmed, this book is packed full of helpful ideas and tips for little ones and their grown-ups.
 
Written by clinical psychologist and author, Nancy Shapiro, who believes that teaching children how to care for themselves can help them in later life, this book’s impactful information is balanced out by cute and bright illustrations from Vânia Sacramento.

This book will teach little ones about:

  • Sleep

  • Being active
  • Learning new skills
  • What to do when something doesn’t feel right
  • Checking in with their body

Wonderful Me is a fantastic first introduction for kids to key topics and skills that will help them to care for themselves as they grow and navigate the world they live in. With a sunny and cheerful colour scheme, this book is comforting yet revolutionary, at a time when it’s becoming more important than ever to teach children these vital skills.
