Soothing Sammy Activity Guide: Supporting Children's Emotions - Paperback

by Jeana Kinne Ma (Author)

Children demonstrate big feelings due to a variety of reasons. Sometimes they become upset because of another child's actions, other times they don't want to participate in the activity the adult is asking them to do and sometimes they are tired or hungry.

Emotions are tricky but there are steps adults can take to encourage positive behaviors. This activity guide is part of the "Soothing Sammy Program." It includes ideas on how to support positive mealtimes, car rides, shopping trips and outdoor experiences through playful games that keep kids engaged during each of these situations. The parent/teacher sections suggest practical ways to encourage children to share, listen, express their feelings, take care of their toys, understand safety rules and so much more.

This guide provides parents, guardians and teachers with helpful tips and resources for positive parenting experiences.

The "Soothing Sammy Program" is featured by Sammy the Golden Dog.
