Fun and easy skills to help kids bounce back from stress and rebound from adversity.

As a parent, you want to protect your child from life’s difficulties. But this isn’t always possible. In order to face the uncertainty and inevitable setbacks of life with confidence, children need the right tools. The good news is that you can give them these tools. Designed for kids ages 7 to 12, this workbook provides actionable techniques to help kids cope with stress, manage powerful emotions, and grow through life’s challenges.

The Resilience Workbook for Kids offers engaging activities grounded in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and positive psychology to help your child recover from difficult experiences. Your child will learn how to “make friends with” their emotions, focus on the things in life that make them happy, and connect with what really matters to them. Finally, your child will discover how helping others can make them feel good about themselves, so they can move beyond feelings like sadness, fear, and anger.

Resilience can help kids stay strong and recover from the psychological impact of stress. This workbook will help your child find the tools needed to build resilience in the face of stress, so they can bounce back even better.

In these increasingly challenging times, kids and teens need mental health resources more than ever. With more than 1.6 million copies sold worldwide, Instant Help Books are easy to use, proven-effective, and recommended by therapists.

    What a fantastic resource for parents, kids and therapists! Each tool that is taught is done in a way that is easily digestible and demystifies CBT. Many of the skills taught in this book are ones that I have found to be invaluable when treating kids with anxiety, depression and PTSD. I love the positive framework- teaching kids how to overcome adversity and become more emotionally intelligent along the way.

    This is an excellent book for ALL children. I would highly recommend it for educators, social workers, and parents as well. There are a significant amount of activities to use with children. I love how the book is organized with a variety of activities such as puzzles, letter-writing, surveys, problem solving scenarios and more. It’s creative and engaging for adults and children. There are also a lot of real-life examples that most children can relate to. I am so happy with my purchase and I think you should order this book today!

    As a clinical psychologist, I appreciate how thoughtfully this book introduces big concepts to kids and parents alike through fun and engaging exercises. It follows a simple and predictable format in which important cognitive behavioral concepts are introduced and explained and then kids are tasked with practicing what they've learned. Therapists all know real change only happens when people practice what we preach. Kids will love "learning," "doing," and "strengthening" their skillsets as they build their resilience muscles!! Bravo to the authors, Caren and Rebecca!!

    As an educator, I am a huge fan of this book! The format is kid friendly and there are so many resources that I can use with my elementary age students. I love how the layout is broken down into Learn It, Do It, Strengthen It and then optional bonuses. This makes it easy to follow along, and gives kids the time they need to understand and process the information they are learning. The book provides relevant, helpful, and realistic strategies that I believe are exactly what kids today need. You won't regret this purchase!

    This workbook is very well organized and communicates evidence-based psychological principles in easy-to-understand and developmentally appropriate language for elementary school-aged kids. The variety of activities, including surveys, puzzles, mazes, letter-writing, and more, had something for everyone and were very creative and engaging. They were fun and would not feel like 'homework' for a child. I particularly like the activities that were specifically designed for a child to work on together with a supportive adult, and there were plenty of useful new concepts for the adult to learn alongside their child. This workbook is a great resource for parents, educators, and psychologists. The practical skills taught in this book to build your resilience muscles are relevant to all kids; no need to reserve this only for children who are stressed or facing challenges in this moment. I would definitely recommend this workbook for all elementary school-aged kids, and I think the adults working with them on the exercises get a free bonus resilience workout, too!

    I bought this book for my 7 year old who has severe anxiety and sensory processing disorder. Being that she is only 7, her and I will work on through workbook together. I began reading it with her and just learning about the word “resilience” was so eye opening for both of us. She is so excited to continue working on it together and said “this is going to help me” as soon as we talked about it more.

    I feel this book is a great tool for kids all ages and we are looking forward to continuing going through the book together as a family. I will also be purchasing a copy for our school to have as well.

    This is a great book to do with your child. It would also be great for teachers or social workers to draw lessons from and teach in small groups. You can break it down into two or three page activities to do with the kids
    I love how this book is filled with exercises and pages for me to work with my child to draw out or fill in our answers. It got me thinking about how to explain and identify emotions. The authors explain a concept to “accept the yuck,” and respond to it. My favorite activity and one that I will practice myself is an acronym they use called PUMP. It involves taking notes and remembering the positive emotions we feel. There is a handy chart in the book to record the positive emotions. Throughout the book is a running theme of positivity and optimism that we all need to practice in our lives.
    If you are looking for lessons to teach elementary school kids, this is definitely a great tool!
