Self-Care for Kids A kid-friendly introduction to self-soothing and mindfulness with adorable animal friends. A child's "very first step" into mindfulness where the story's short rhymes can be used as soothing mantras, paired with delightful illustrations of baby animals working through anxious situations. This book does double duty as a self-help story providing great comfort beyond the pages.

A sweet, beautiful children's book encouraging the little ones to practice mindfulness. I didn't love this, though, because I found the language a little too complex for the really little ones - and yet I found the art a little too simple for the older ones. Is this aimed at toddlers? Preschoolers? I also wondered what the research and evidence from child psychologists is in terms of encouraging kids to work through their strong emotions. Sweet, but I'm not sure I would recommend this to others.
