Keeping It Cool: Skills for Coping with Change (Kids Healthy Coping Skills Series)

I liked this book. My grandson was able to read it and understand it and was able resite skills needed to stay calm when angry.

Such a nicely done children's book! The illustrations are warm, inviting and inclusive. I love that the child explores multiple avenues of keeping busy and keeping calm. This book is a great way to discuss ways to regulate emotions and have fun with your children.

I enjoyed this story with my son. We were able to talk about gratitude and coping. The illustration was beautiful, truly enjoyed this book. Great job ❤️

Loved the practical ideas for how to cope, but also the relatable ideas. I appreciated the representation of people of color and the overall focus on SEL is very much needed. Teachers and families alike will ike this one!P.S. I think the sunshine recommendation was my favorite :)

Nicely organized book on coping skills for children.As the parent of a child with a general anxiety disorder, I attest to using most of these suggestions on or with my daughter.Change is hard, especially for a child who isn't in control of life making decisions.I would like a name to go along with the character in the book.

While this book is geared towards Covid (without mentioning Covid) it is chock full of activities a child can do anytime there is change or they find themselves bored - including summer break!It lost a star when the kids were doing art on the wall. Overall, it’s a good story with lovely illustrations.

This cute and brightly illustrated book offers children a variety of suggestions on how they can creatively use their imaginations to cope with change, with a particular focus on the kind of change that accompanied the pandemic: namely quarantining and lockdown procedures where children find themselves suddenly cooped up at home.I particularly enjoyed the page at the end that offers an illustrated list of activities that essentially summarizes the book.Pandemic or no pandemic, change or no change, the suggestions in this book are also great alternatives to screen time.

I Love That The Author Addresses Everyday Things That Can Be Overwhelming And Hard For A Child To Understand, And She Gives Positive Solutions That Are Fun And Easy To Do. This Is A Great Book To Read And Re-read To Your Child To First Teach And Then Reassure Them About Changes And Their Feelings. Will Definitely Be Looking For More From This Author.

We loved this book. It was full of ideas for my son to pass the time and everyone knows that ideas are always better heard from a book, game or another adult lol I loved it. Thank you.

Especially these days the book helped us to learn about change. Life is constantly changing and it’s about us how to respond to it. The book is beautifully illustrated and gives a lot of options how to cope with change and how to make it fun.
