Reach for this book when your child is struggling with physical impulses or hitting during moments of frustration and social play. It provides a supportive framework for toddlers and preschoolers who need help identifying the 'big feelings' that lead to physical outbursts. The story follows Tim as he navigates the playground, illustrating that while anger is a natural emotion, hitting is not a helpful way to express it. Through Tim's experiences, parents can find a gentle opening to discuss self-regulation and empathy without making the child feel like a 'bad kid.' It models how to pause, breathe, and use words to reconnect with friends. This is an essential tool for families looking to move from reactive discipline to proactive social-emotional learning, perfect for children aged 3 to 6.
