Beskrivning
This book will help develop coping skills through arts and language-based activities. The strategies suggested build on children's existing knowledge and skills to enhance their learning, and will all contribute to: · improving all children's emotional health and creativity · developing resilience, particularly in periods of high stress such as transition from preschool to school · increasing children's capacity to cooperate, respect and play with others The authors also explain how to identify children at risk, particularly those experiencing anxiety or delay in social and emotional development, so that parents and practitioners can intervene early where difficulties exist. Practitioners and parents of children aged 3-8 will find a treasure trove of activities to build coping and self-esteem through creative play and imagination.

'Based on research over many years, at last there is a book to help young children develop coping strategies needed for a strong sense of self and socio-emotional skills needed for success in life!Using coping images to promote discussion, arts, and other discipline-based learning activities, this book provides the theoretical base and practical strategies to help young children cope in positive ways with hard situations important to the age. Applicable to classrooms and to the home environment, as well as dealing with coping for students with special needs, this book is needed more than ever in our increasingly stressful and complex world to prepare young children to successfully manage their fears and feelings.'
