The Peaceful Plane: Practicing Positive Behavior on an Airplane

The Peaceful Plane, written and illustrated by Annie Alwine, includes fun pictures and simple rhymes that teach positive behaviors on an airplane. Children learn best from repetition and clearly communicated expectations of their behavior before they are in a new environment. Taking babies, toddlers and kids on a flight can be one of the most stressful times for parents. Children can become overstimulated and excited when they are out of their typical routines and in a new place, which can make teaching appropriate etiquette in the midst of a new experience very challenging. Don't wait until you're fastening a child's seat belt for a five-hour flight to beg them not to scream, kick their neighbors chair or stay in their seat. Practice now!The pages are filled with diversity and inclusion of varying disabilities, sexual orientation, races, gender identities, body types and religions. Children and families can identify with characters while gaining exposure to a variety of cultures different from their own, encouraging acceptance and appreciation of others.For those who don't fly, this book is still a fan-favorite, bringing those little planes high in the sky that children see overhead to life.The first children's picture book of its kind, The Peaceful Plane, is part of a debut series from Behavior Books. The author includes a parent guide and is great for children ages 1 to 5 years old. Great for teachers' Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculums too.Accolades for The Peaceful Series: "Every baby registry should include this book series!"-- Natalie Rodriguez, M.D. Associate Clinical Professor, Family Medicine and Public Health, UC San Diego"We all have cringe-worthy moments in public with our kids. Explaining the behaviors we want to see in advance truly helps. These books make it fun so I don't sound like a broken record."-- Valerie Dorrian, M.A., CCC-SLP, Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist & Mom of Two"These books prepare your kids for new adventures in advance while keeping your child's attention. I highly recommend making this series part of your bedtime routines." -- Joel E. Hershey, M.D., Fellow in the American Academy of Pediatrics.…
