A new book is empowering parents to talk to their children about understanding their brains, encouraging brain care and how this impacts on their emotions and behaviour.
Love Your Brain is the first children’s picture book from Sunshine child behaviour expert Chrissie Davies.
Davies experience in advocating for and understanding children with challenging behaviours.
“When we truly understand that children don’t see the world in the same way as adults, and we teach them how to keep their brains happy and healthy, we understand that this is really the most important parenting tool we will ever need,” Davies said.
By writing the book, Davies hopes that parents and children understand their behaviour more positively, and discover how to become brain builders, together.
Love Your Brain is an informative and light-hearted text narrated by Little Brainiac – a likeable children’s character – about the importance of looking after and understanding our unique brains.
The book emphasises the naming of emotions, and most importantly, how to manage them.
Youngsters are also given tips on how to care for their brain by getting lots of sleep, eating lots of healthy food, drinking water, listening to music and giving their brain a break by using meditation and mindfulness.
