Publisher description
This workbook shows the importance of encouraging resilience in pre-school children who have disrupted home lives or are in other difficult situations. Focusing on assessment of need, the authors show how to evaluate resilience using checklists and background information and considering 'protective factors, ' and make practice suggestions for strategies of intervention.
Brigid Daniel and Sally Wassell explain that children in their early years gain resilience through learning to understand others and behaving in a positive way towards them. With this in mind, they set out ways of encouraging pro-social behavior in young children by involving them in the process of evaluation, giving support to the parent or carer of the child, and using joint activities to nurture the child's 'theory of mind.' Including guidance on ongoing monitoring and supported by case studies from practice, this book is an essential guide to nurturing resilience for all those who work with young children and their families.
This workbook stands alone but also forms part of a set (ISBN 1-84310-045-2) along with two other resilience resources on The School Years and Adolescence. The complete set can be bought together at a reduced price
