Taking a Safe Break

Product description

If your child runs off when they feel angry or embarrassed, this simple story helps them learn that needing space is okay, and that the safe way to take it is to tell a trusted adult where they're going.

Written in calm, positive first person language, it teaches children to:

• Understand that big feelings are normal
• Say "I need a break"
• Tell a trusted adult where they're going
• Use calming tools at home or school
• Return when they're ready

Ideal for autistic children, school age kids and tweens who need help with emotional regulation and safe behaviour.

Tip: Read it together when your child is calm, and practise the key phrases often.
