Reach for this book when your child's excitement turns into a whirlwind of wiggles, shouting, or an inability to focus. While joy is a positive emotion, it can be overwhelming for young children to process the physical sensations that come with high energy. This book provides a gentle, nonfiction framework for identifying how excitement feels in the body and offers constructive ways to channel that energy. It is specifically designed for preschool and early elementary children who are still learning to regulate their impulses during celebrations or new experiences. By normalizing the 'big' feeling of being thrilled, it helps children understand that they aren't 'being bad' when they are loud; they are simply experiencing a powerful emotion that needs a healthy outlet. Parents will appreciate the clear, relatable photography and the actionable strategies that move a child from chaotic energy to mindful enjoyment.
