Description
"Today I Feel... Happy is a book from the Today I Feel... series, a collection of stories for helping little kids understand their emotions. A simple, sweet story to help our children nurture, feel, and enjoy HAPPINESS. Joy is that pleasant, inspiring emotion that provides us enjoyment, laughter, well-being, satisfaction, and sometimes, relief. It is this emotion that we all want to feel and which, of course, we want our children to feel. Children feel this way while playing, when meeting with friends, before an exciting excursion, when they get a good grade, or receive a gift, although they can also feel it if a test for which they are unprepared gets postponed, or if they are freed from a chore they don't feel like doing. Joy encourages physical activity, generates attachment in young minds, facilitates spontaneity, urges them to share, and is incredibly contagious. It can be so intense that even children can cry from happiness. With it, we adults can receive a lot of information about their well-being. "We can't choose what to feel, but we can decide what to do with what we feel, and of course, we can teach our children to do what is best with that which they feel.
