Book Reviews of A Boy and a Bear: The Children's Relaxation Book
Book Review: Relaxation concepts for the youngest kids
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a mental health therapist with children and families. There are many books and resources to teach kids about relaxation and breathing, but few work for me to introduce the concepts to my younger clients - preschoolers and younger elementary school children. (Though it would also be good for older elementary schoolers.) The simplicity of this book is calming in and of itself. The children I see enjoy it that the little boy in the book is the expert, and they enjoy the expressions of the overwhelmed bear as the boy helps him to learn how to manage his emotions. The pictures are simple - not like the color-saturated pictures common to most children's picture books now - but that's also part of the book's charm and calming influence.
Summary of A Boy and a Bear: The Children's Relaxation Book
A Boy and a Bear teaches young children how to relax and calm themselves. Written for children 3 - 10 years old, this book tells the story of a young boy who encounters a polar bear while they are both climbing a snow covered mountain. The boy and bear become friends and learn an important lesson in relaxation together. As the bear watches the boy breathing, children mirror their movements and learn valuable breathing skills to enhance their own relaxation. Children will not only enjoy the story, but will benefit by learning a self-calming technique to reduce stress, prepare for sleep, and improve self-confidence.Bedtime & Dreaming Books
