An estimated 15 to 20 percent of people are born with a nervous system that is more aware of (and reactive to) sensory stimuli. Being a highly sensitive person (HSP) is not a diagnosis in need of treatment, and in fact comes with many strengths—highly sensitive people are known for being empathetic, creative, passionate, and intelligent. However, since a highly sensitive child experiences the world a little differently, they may easily become overwhelmed or anxious. Luckily, there are practical, approachable solutions to help ease this feeling of overwhelm. This warm, engaging workbook, written by a licensed child therapist and parent coach, is filled with activities designed to help children develop skills to prevent overstimulation as they learn to harness the strengths that come with their sensitivity. From identifying their feelings to challenging negative thinking patterns, kids, guided by their parents, will practice skills that will help them feel calmer and more in control—forming better relationships with family and friends and easing problems at school. A bonus section at the end of each chapter encourages kids and their families to practice the skills they've learned for even greater success. The Highly Sensitive Child's Workbook features: SIX ESSENTIAL SKILLS TO FIND CALM AND CONTROL, including learning to identify feelings and needs and practicing skills to ease stress in the moment. 50 FUN, SCIENCE-BACKED EXERCISES to help parents utilize art, games, and role-playing, to teach children the skills needed to navigate life's ups and downs. AN AFFIRMING APPROACH to help you empower your highly sensitive child as they learn practical, lifelong skills to thrive in school, family and friendships, and life. TIPS TO PERSONALIZE ACTIVITIES to support your child's growth and meet their needs in a variety of different scenarios. BONUS GAMES AND ACTIVITIES to play with family and friends to keep children engaged as they reinforce and practice the skills learned in each chapter. ages 6 and up.

A Must-Have Resource for Caregivers, Helpers, and Children
"The Highly Sensitive Child's Workbook" by Amanda is a rich resource of tools, insights, and compassion for caregivers and highly sensitive children alike. Amanda's approach shines with her positive reframes that normalize and celebrate the strengths of being a Highly Sensitive Child (HSC). Her language is both user-friendly and child-centered, making it accessible to both caregivers and children. Reading this book feels like what I imagine being in the play therapy room with Amanda is like. She creates a safe space for feelings, offering empathy and compassion, while teaching coping skills that are essential for everyday success. The workbook is packed with activities designed to help children understand and identify their feelings, engage in positive self-talk, and assess the effectiveness of their coping tools. From mindfulness practices to exercises that help children clarify their wants and needs, this workbook empowers children to communicate effectively, identify the helpers in their lives, repair relationships when emotions run high, set personal boundaries, and ultimately, thrive in this world. This workbook is not just a resource—it's a guide to nurturing and empowering the highly sensitive child in your life. Highly recommended for any caregiver, teacher, or therapist working with HSCs. I will be utilizing this resource in our therapeutic playrooms with clients!

Absolutely love this workbook. We do a page a night together and my son often asks for more. He is six and has been able to understand all of the exercises and concepts with conversation and support.
