[Tereza Vlckova · Rating 4 out of 5]

Highly recommended method for all teachers, psychologists, and parents. Applicable for children from 4 years up to teenagers, for normally developing children or kids with ADHD and other disorders. Literally a method that everyone can easily learn to deliver and children love it!

Boek gelezen voor mijn studie. Leest lekker vlot en de methode wordt duidelijk uitgelegd met bijpassende voorbeeldsituaties. Verder lijkt het stappenplan goed toepasbaar in de praktijk. Al met al een fijn en nuttig boek!

Een wat ouder boek, en daardoor zijn sommige dingen net wat minder van toepassing, maar de basis van deze methode vond ik erg interessant. Past goed bij oplossingsgericht werken. Uit het stappenplan kunnen ook losse elementen gebruikt worden.

Ben Furman, p.37:
‘Er is niets mis met onze kinderen - ze moeten alleen soms één of twee vaardigheden verbeteren.’ 🧑🏻‍🏫

Hea raamat. Üks viisidest, kuidas lapsi allutada mitte neid murdmata.

Ich schaffs! ist ein Programm, das aus Finnland kommt. Es handelt sich um einen lösungsorientierten Ansatz zum Umgang mit Verhaltensproblemen. Wobei hier schon das erste positive Phänomen auftritt. Bei Ich schaffs! geht es nämlich eigentlich gar nicht um Probleme sondern um die Fähigkeiten, die Kinder noch erlernen müssen, damit sich ihr Verhalten ändern kann.

Kids' Skills - Playful and practical solution-finding with children by Ben Furman is a book I would recommend to any parent or teacher of children. It offers a solution focused approach to helping children develop skills that overcome everyday problems.

It is a very easy read with 15 steps to follow. Each step is discussed in its own chapter of 4-8 pages with good examples provided. Step 1 is converting the problem into a skill to be learn. It then moves on to agree on the skill with the child, exploring the benefits of the skill, naming it and gathering supporters. To help the child learn and make it engaging as well as playful, it suggests choosing a power creature and planning a celebration for when they have learnt the skill.

Other steps include how to building confidence, defining the skill, making the skill publicly known, practicing the skill, creating reminders and celebrating success. After success comes passing on the skill to others and moving on to the next skill to learn. The final chapter of the book includes a number of possible solution idea’s for a range of common issues.

All of the steps helps change your perspective on behaviour issues and makes the learning for the child playful and positive. I would recommend it to parents, grand parents, teachers and significant others who are supporting children and helping them build positive life skills.

Picked this book up for research on a paper and though it didn't really relate to my topic in the end, I found it profoundly interesting. The approach to problems as skills not yet learned is so simple and yet I can't believe it's not more common. Even if you don't have the time to implement the entire program (which you should of course if possible) I still think that even using this shift in addressing an issue alone will affect the entire situation, how one on "the helping end" and the one on "the help receiving end" perceive the problem and themselves and how they consequently deal with it. And although the program is designed for kids, it is also applicable (with modifications) for adults in my opinion. Definitely worth a read!

Good book with easy approach to use in real life.
