Description
Help your child understand and manage their emotions with this practical guide. Recognising, expressing and understanding emotions is crucial for young children to make sense of their life experiences. Children diagnosed with autism often struggle with recognising and processing emotions, leading to high levels of anxiety. The 'Fun with Feelings' programme provides a structured approach to help parents support their child's emotional regulation and reduce anxiety. This guide takes you through 10 stages, starting with practical strategies for creating a toolbox to manage anxiety, and then working through the activity book 'Having Fun with Feelings on the Autism Spectrum: A CBT Activity Book for Kids'. Written by world-leading experts in the field, this manual empowers parents to better understand their child's emotional skill set and help them articulate their feelings.
