Synopsis

Children often get restless, hyperactive or anxious. Calmness and peace of mind can be invaluable for children, especially in this age of gadgets and overstimulation. This is why so many parents are enrolling their children in yoga and meditation classes. This story teaches children a simple technique they can use to calm themselves down and manage their emotions. Mikey the monkey and his classmates were restless and fidgety. They just wouldn't settle down. The teacher, Mr Nutwell, thought they needed something a bit different to calm them down. He knew someone who could help: Pari, a magnificent, serene white peacock. But what would she ask the children to do? Well, her trick worked like magic and the children loved it! The classroom became quiet and peaceful, and a feeling of calm set in. The Mikey Says tips will help your child apply the lesson from the story. The parent's notes will help you support your child's learning and development and encourage discussion. This children's book from Kidz4Mation is part of a series of six stories about life skills for children. Each of the six stories teaches a different positive lesson, specially designed to empower children and promote positive teaching and parenting. Other titles in this series are: Mikey Helps Toot-Toot - Positive Thinking Tiggle Takes Off - Gratitude Mikey Says 'I Can Do It' - Overcoming Limiting Beliefs Mikey Aces His Test - Positive Affirmations Chik-Chik's Cap - Raising Self Esteem Available as ebook or hardcopy.

About this title

About the Author:

The authors, Amal and Santa Simothy and Hitul and Seema Thobhani are passionate believers in the power of self and life skills development to help children become the happiest, most fulfilled and successful they can be. They formed Kidz4Mation in 2009 to inspire and empower 1 million children globally. Kidz4Mation raises confidence in children to improve their behaviour and attainment at school - led by Mikey the Monkey and his friends from Happyland. We believe healthy self esteem in children is essential for their success and happiness. A child's most wonderful and carefree years can be ruined by bullying, lack of confidence, negativity and self doubt. During elementary/primary school, children should be growing in confidence, becoming more independent and building strong friendships. Anger, shyness, anxiety and fear of speaking in public can blight a child's life, holding them back at school and stalling their development as a person. So far, the quartet have changed thousands of lives through their books, workshops, teacher training programmes and free iphone app. Their vision is for positive self improvement to be at the heart of and inherent in education systems for all children globally.
