Anger Management Workbook for Kids 50 Fun Activities to Help Children Stay Calm and Make Better Choices When They Feel Mad Samantha Snowden MA Andrew Hill PhD 9781641520928 Books Reviews

• My son has had really bad anger and rage issues for the last 2 years. We have tried pretty much everything from calming techniques, contact sports, counseling, etc. Nothing seemed to even slightly help. However we have seen a dramatic improvement since using this workbook. We are only on the 5th activity but he is starting to recognize his anger more and enjoys working in it. I can tell you the first time we told him about it and the first activity sheet was a very very rough go. I am excited to see how he will be at the end of the entire workbook.
  
  Personally I think the book looks super cool, fun to work through and very colorful and kid friendly. Great teacher about anger and even explains it in a biological way
• 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!
• Been working on this book with my almost 7 year old. Also been using it for group work in my NGO in East Africa. Love it! Worth the investment.
• 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. Author Samantha Snowden has a master’s degree in clinical and educational psychology and extensive experience.
• I am a school social worker and this will be a great book to address anger with the kids I work with. It is very kid friendly and has great activities to do either individually or with a group. I like that it is about accepting and "getting to know" your anger in order to cope with it, instead of trying to avoid anger all together.
• My students love this workbook! I’m a School Counselor and today I handed the book to one of my 5th graders when he came for a break in my office. I told him to go through all the bookmarked pages and add a check to the pages he wanted to complete with our anger management group. After about 5 minutes he said, “can I add checkmarks to pages you didn’t bookmark too?” My heart melted! This resource is really wonderful and I look forward to using it with my elementary aged students all the time! Thank you!
• Ok so I got this for my 9yr old son. He doesn’t have ‘anger issues’ but I’ve noticed he is having trouble with problem solving and wasn’t following teachers directions, which was very new to me.
  I actually thought this book was for the parents, comes to find out its for your child.
  I absolutely don’t understand why ‘anger management’ is written big fat on it. I realized my kids (all three of them) thought it was a little to ‘harsh’ and ‘too serious’.
  
  My son completed some of the activities but found them ‘stupid’ (his words, not mine)
  There were questions like name your anger or how does your anger smell like. My son is very mature so it might be just him. I am looking for different books but we will still complete some of the activities.
