This is a bundle purchase of two compassionate parenting resources.

Parenting with a focus on self-presentation and approval can lead to great guilt and shame when our children do not “perform in the desired way” and we seem to have “failed to raise our children in the socially expected manner”.

Compassionate parenting means implementing parenting strategies with mindful awareness, acceptance and empathy. It emphasizes noticing and understanding children’s needs. The key focus is on supporting children’s resolution of these needs and long term growth instead of gaining immediate social recognition.

1. The Basic Developmental Psychology psychoeducation worksheets are written to enhance understanding of children’s developmental needs in infancy, toddlerhood and and early childhood. Knowing what to expect, parents and caretakers can respond to children’s behaviours and needs with greater confidence and compassion.

2. The emotional coaching workbook aims at helping children to develop skills of coping with emotions in a mindful and self-compassionate manner. It is expected that children use this workbook under adult’s coaching and supervision.

The workbook is divided into five parts that focuses on:
1. Mindfulness practices
2. Noticing feelings
3. Self-soothing skills
4. Reappraisal exercises
5. Building positive relationships

The exercises are written with school age children in mind. Considering the diversity of children’s language and emotional development, some children may be able to understand and benefit from the exercises before they are able to complete the written records in the workbook. Adults are encouraged to select suitable exercises based on individual child’s abilities and needs.

You can also purchase the psychoeducation worksheet and emotional coaching workbook individually.
