Teaching Children Self-Objectification
Teaching your children body positivity and resilience can have a lasting impact on their self-esteem, self-perception and how they interact with an image-driven culture. It's never to late to empower them with the education and tools they need to succeed.

Children's Books About Mental Health and Wellness

by Kara Neumann
Children's Books About Mental Health and Wellness

Talking about mental health with kids can feel daunting. 

Sometimes we don't know what to say, or maybe we don't even fully understand, or know what to talk about, or how to bring it up, or maybe we will say all the wrong things.

Well, we've got a list of picture books up on the blog to help you talk to kids about various mental health issues and mental wellbeing too. 

Kids are so visual and this gives them a tangible way to learn more about depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, peer pressure, etc., in an inviting way. 

We're so lucky that there are incredible people in the world that are tackling hard subjects so that we can better understand and help our kids to understand too. 

These and other books will be a great opportunity to have very intentional discussions with our families about mental health and wellness.

What books have you read with your kids about mental health? We'd love to hear your suggestions! Leave a comment :)
