Confidence, emotional intelligence and resilience are vital to children's mental wellbeing, and this book gives early years practitioners all the the tools they need to promote these skills in young children.
This book explores how three approaches - growth mindset, Forest School and multiple intelligences - can be key to building these skills. Each chapter includes activities and ideas to show how these different approaches can be used in everyday practice.
'In this highly readable and heartfelt exploration of what children truly need and why, Barnes has written a book that sings from each page with a rallying cry to embrace deeper and more authentic holism in education.' Greg Bottrill, early years specialist and author.
