  • Managing big feelings can be difficult for children. That’s why we created the How to Train Your Amygdala Calming Kit in collaboration with author, mental health expert, and early childhood education consultant Anna Housley Juster, Ph.D., LICSW. Based on Dr. Juster’s book, How to Train Your Amygdala, this exclusive kit comes with a range of child-friendly resources for managing emotions and supporting social-emotional development. From helping them understand their bodies and practice impulse control to boosting self-regulation, this kit was designed to help children understand and manage their emotions in a friendly and approachable way. With these resources, learning to manage big feelings can be an enjoyable experience for children that sets them up for future success in life. Explore the full kit: https://lnkd.in/gsw8prA7
