Product Description

The Essential Companion Workbook To The National Bestseller Raising Your Spirited Child,

In this companion workbook, Mary Sheedy Kurcinka brings readers into her world-famous workshops, where she offers parents and educators insights, emotional support and proven strategies for dealing with spirited children. The key word that distinguishes spirited children from other children is "more" -- more intense, more persistent, more sensitive and more uncomfortable with change. Through exercises, observations and dialogue from actual groups, Kurcinka helps readers learn to identify the triggers that lead to tantrums and challenging behaviors. Included are

clues to help you identify the little things that can make or break a day

tips for profiling your child's temperament and your own

cues that indicate intensity is rising

successful strategies for reducing and eliminating power struggles

By combining the intuition and compassion gained from parenting a spirited child with the wisdom of an expert who has worked with thousands of families, Mary Sheedy Kurcinka helps parents and educators view their unique challenge with perseverance, flexibility, sensitivity, and, most of all, enjoyment.

A helpful book but not a cure all
This book was amazingly insightful. It let me know that I am not the only parent who has a handful...of love. I have always know that my son was different, in a good way, but was concerned with his level of energy and it's effects in school. I am learning that a large amount of information is available and I encourage you to look into the foods your child consumes, talk with teachers, doctors and friends. I found there could be allergies or it could be ADHD (an exhausted brain from over functioning)that may keep your child from learning in a traditional school setting.

A must read for those with "Spirited" Children
This is a great workbook that goes along with the book "Raising Your Spirited Child". A must for those with "Spirited" Children. Many thought our child was ADD or ADHD, but it turns out she is not! Thank goodness she's not stuck with a label like some many other kids. IT turns out she is just normal like many other kids, but has lots of energy. This workbook gives you suggestions and ideas to help those children channel their energy.
