So, so helpful. This is the first parenting book I’ve read cover to cover (and didn’t take me MONTHS just to put down and never pick up again). It’s super easy to understand and follow along, and has clear, simple to implement tips to incorporate into your daily life.

I really appreciated how this book focused not only on the emotional needs of children, but also of their adult caregivers and how different stages and emotions (that ARE normal) can bring up difficulties in adults that we may not have been previously aware of. I also really appreciated how they mentioned that working on these skills and emotional needs with your own children is significantly harder than working with other children (teachers). As a SpEd and early childhood teacher, I was great at managing outburts/tantrums and helping kids without it impacting me too much, but that is not always the case with my own child and it was nice to have that validation.

Enjoyed this one and wrote a lot of notes down! I will be getting the workbook to also work through that to help support emotional development for my daughter.
I have not read these books at the time of this review, however I believe the next two books I will dive into will help all these points they made in this book make so much more sense: (1) Tony Humans, Big Emotions, and (2) The Whole-Brain Child.
I look forward to continuing my education on how to support my emotional healing and to help support my daughter’s emotional growth throughout her childhood.
