Helping Your Child Learn to Notice Their Body’s Signals

“Are you hungry?”

“Do you have to poop?”

“How do you feel?”

“Are you thirsty?”

“Do you have to go potty?”

“Why are you yelling?”

“Why did you just throw that?”

Trying to figure out how your child is feeling, and therefore how you can help, can feel like an impossible puzzle.

While a question like “Are you hungry?” or “Do you need to poop?” feels easy to answer as an adult, the reality is it is difficult for a child to connect sensations, feelings, and what is needed to help them feel better. 

The following books use story and games to help your child learn to connect what they feel with what they can do to feel better.
