Nervous Ninja: A Social Emotional Book for Kids About Calming Worry and Anxiety (Ninja Life Hacks)

My daughter suffers from anxiety, and I am always looking for ways to help her. This cute book was fun to read, and she loved the visualization strategy using ice cream! Last night when she expressed that she was worried about her upcoming math test, we talked about the different ice cream flavors and which one might help her. She gave it a try, and she said it helped! I know her anxiety will never magically disappear, but this book is another tool in her toolbox to help her cope during the rough days.

I counsel kids -and coping skill application is always the aim This book brings a very creative way for children to learn and apply coping skills. Children love ice cream and the flavors representing the coping skills is brilliant. I've used this book (and MANY OTHER Ninja hits) in therapy and kids make the connection with Marys books of applying coping skills, and ultimately how to feel better. Her books are a great resource for anyone in the field of helping children!

Nervous ninja is a great role model😍 I like that it was realistic to read; it wasn’t ok I’ll try that and everything’s fixed. But progression with the calming techniques. My son really enjoys all these books and I’m hoping this one was encouraging so we can try ice cream flavors ourselves next time!

My 5 year old daughter enjoyed reading this book with me. She often feels nervous and the coping strategies helped her understand how she can calm her nerves. She loved the vibrants pictures and the book was easy to understand for her. Another great addition to the series!

Nervous Ninja : A Social Emotional Learning Book for Kids About Calming Worry and Anxiety, another Mary Nhin winner!Excellent advice for kids and adults for coping with anxiety and life pressures!

My 6 year old daughter and I really enjoyed this book and we liked the cone strategy that Caring Ninja shared with Nervous Ninja to help her calm down. We think we could use some of these too!

I really liked the ice cream cone technique to calm nervous energy. The author really explained the concept in a way that even the youngest of children can apply. This book is written well and illustrations are fun and engaging.

This book does a very nice job of modeling how to cope when feeling nervous. I love the printables! Children will love making their ice cream cones,such a cute and relatable way for them to learn.

I read this to my daughter who often deals with feeling nervous. I really enjoyed the easy to understand calming practices to help calm the nerves. I highly recommend for anyone that has a nervous child.

Can't wait to use this with the children I work with. I love the examples and the vocabulary used to increase a child's ability to express emotions.

A great book to talk with kids about anxiety
