Having a tanty? Chucking your toys out of the cot? Throwing a wobbly? These are just some of the phrases we use to describe having a tantrum. While it is easy to make fun of such an event, it represents emotional turmoil, or a feelings storm, happening within. This book describes feelings that create these storms and offers children a range of well researched techniques to help calm the storm inside them - such as: breathing activities, physical activities, sensory play, imaginative or creative thinking, positive self-talk and mindfulness.
