Praise for What to Do When You Are Mad: 

"What to do When you are Mad' is an amazing and comprehensive resource for elementary-aged kids!

"What to Do When You are Mad is a wonderful workbook to help your child explore their feelings and channel their anger in a positive direction. I love how the book teaches kids to accept anger and shows them how they can channel that energy into a superpower! A positive book on a difficult feeling!" - Natasha Daniels, Child Therapist

How to Use:

Print the workbook pages and go through the exercises at your own pace over the course of a week or two at times when your child is calm and not angry.

Next time your child has a meltdown, see their smallness. See how their emotions are bigger than they are. And in that moment of truly seeing them, you will feel empathy rather than exasperation. - Ashley Soderlund
