“Anger Management Workbook for Kids is a comprehensive compilation of exercises aimed at identifying anger and its triggers and finding tools to deal with the frustrations that lead to an outburst or hurt feelings. Samantha Snowden uses all types of identifiable situations that children find in everyday life, and includes easy charts and formulas that show how to head off anger by learning the triggers. She furthers the experience by teaching what causes those feelings, both physically and emotionally, as well as exploring possible unwanted consequences. This book is a must-read for parents, educators, and children, and should enable all readers to find the monster that anger can become, remove its fangs, and reduce its power forever.”―Carole P. Roman, author of Mindfulness for Kids“With this workbook, Samantha Snowden has provided a rich and useful set of practices to help develop the skills to notice and manage our internal states. Once kids start to develop a sense of freedom from their own emotions―not by ignoring them or pushing them away, but by validating the processes and circumstances that are creating them―great self-regulation skills can start to develop…The exercises and readings in this book will help kids of all ages break through the habit of automatic reactions, provide tools for labeling and understanding how their anger and discomfort work, and support them on the path of learning to be comfortable with their own emotions.”―Andrew Hill, PhD, Founding Director of the Peak Brain Institute and UCLA Lecturer in Psychology“As a former teacher and school counselor, I find Samantha Snowden's The Anger Management Workbook for Kids to be an incredible resource and tool to help kids go beyond managing anger to replacing it with choices that help them thrive. This useful workbook is thorough, yet not heavy in any way. Snowden has performed a beautiful balancing act with this book, providing kids with information; exploration and interaction; and activities, strategies, and skills that they can take out of the workbook and into their lives. The workbook is inviting and non-judgmental―kids don't feel accused or like adults want to "fix" them. In a gentle yet honest and frank way, this book helps kids explore their anger (thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, and behaviors), its causes, and its consequences. I highly recommend this book for any child whose anger is overpowering and interfering in their life. With its approach that neither shames nor reprimands, kids will develop understanding and skills that will help now and as they grow into adults.”―Tanya J. Peterson, MS, NCC, author of eight mental health books, including The Mindfulness Workbook for Anxiety“Samantha Snowden has created an engaging, thoughtful workbook for kids who are interested in exploring exactly what is taking place inside our bodies and minds as anger forms. These hands-on activities encourage communication, self-reflection, and creativity, as children are guided step-by-step to investigate their emotions, recognize and identify feelings and needs, and practice, and ultimately shift, negative reactions. I highly recommend this interactive book, and applaud with gratitude Snowden’s support of self-awareness, connectivity, and compassion.”―J.

~~ A COMPLETE resource to help kids handle their anger ~~ Colorful! Does NOT look boring! That's what struck me first before I even opened the book. In fact as soon as this workbook arrived one of our children, who has some anger issues, asked, "Is this book for me?" (Yes!)"Most people - even kids - can make a great deal of change in how happy and safe they feel by learning to understand their feelings instead of simply reacting to their emotions." There is both a letter to grown-ups and kids at the beginning. Three main parts (listed below) are split into smaller activity sections.Why do I feel angry? * What happens when I feel angry? * What should I do with my anger?The first section encourages the child to become a detective and solve how anger feels, how to know what it is like etc. It encourages the child to be curious. The author also explains in clear terms the happenings in our brains and bodies when we get angry. The very helpful exercises are not just about "me, me, me" but also help the child understand the effects their anger has on others - both humans and pets. The child is guided to getting to the root of what causes the anger to well up inside of them.SO SO refreshing to hear the author talking about people in our lives that may be difficult to get along with but ones that we cannot just walk away from. ( I have read/reviewed many so-called "self help" books encouraging you to eliminate such people from your life when reality is that whilst that may be possible sometimes, it is most definitely not possible when it is a close family member!) Once again SO thankful for the realism in this book and "talking" to the angry child about this and helping them through.Have you ever thought of teaching your child how to greet their anger and "other big feelings" with kindness? This is what the lessons in Pt. 3 of this book attempt to do.I was THOROUGHLY impressed with this book. There is plenty of space for kids to write and draw. The activities are a reasonable length and don't get too bogged down. A child can learn to cope without feeling condemned or thinking of it as another school lesson to do. Whilst a 6 year old may need help filling in all the blanks, an 11 year old could theoretically work through this book by themselves, depending on their ability. (Working on this with an adult would likely be the ideal situation though.) Why is this book not available on Kindle? It is a workbook and thus a book that needs to be physically present to be written and colored in. (Think textbook/exercise book.) I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher. That has not influenced my review which consists of my own thoughts and opinions. Thanks, LizGreat workbook My daughter is suffering from anger issues from a divorce. This workbook is amazing and is truly helping her get through a tough time. It's a big workbook, identifies and defines anger and also has activities where the child has to define exactly how they feel, identify to them what anger looks like, what color it is. I love this workbook and can't recommend this enough. If you have a child with anger or going through a tough time, this workbook is truly amazing!Helping kids find their way This helpful workbook is destined to be used by many counselors and parents as it covers a wide spectrum of issues. It’s a tool that will likely get repeated use, and it keeps mindfulness in the background as it helps adults work towards solutions and/or develop strategies. Each section begins with an introduction that provides insights for adults, followed by three to five exercises for kids. Although each exercise has spaces where answers can be written and pictures drawn, it’s likely many of these will be conducted orally, as counselors decide what’s appropriate for each situation.Some representative examples of the sections include: What Else Can Anger Be, with corresponding exercises on getting to know fear, sadness, and disappointment; and Who Makes Me Feel Angry, with four sections that include When Things Get Hard at Home, and Conflicts at School.Parents who purchase this book may find it provides insights into situations they are seeing at home. In some cases, simply being able to recognize the issue(s) is useful and act upon it may be enough, but in other cases the questions may help to highlight an underlying cause or to suggest a situation is escalating and professional help would be useful. Any tool that helps adults support a child’s emotional development is useful, provided it is adapted to individual cases.
