About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their child begins noticing the complexities of human behavior, asking why people react differently to the same situation or why their own feelings can be so overwhelming. It serves as a gentle, structured introduction to the 'how' and 'why' behind our thoughts, offering a foundation for emotional intelligence and self-awareness. This guide breaks down psychological concepts into digestible ideas for children aged 7 to 12. It covers the basics of brain function, the formation of habits, and the power of perception. By framing the mind as a landscape to be explored, it empowers kids to understand their own mental processes and fosters empathy for others. It is an ideal choice for parents who want to move beyond just naming feelings to understanding the science of the human experience.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book handles mental processes in a secular, scientific manner. While it touches on 'big feelings,' it does not delve into clinical pathology or trauma, maintaining a focus on general human development and cognitive functions. The tone is objective yet encouraging.
