Self-Esteem Starters for Kids: Stretch Your Confidence!

Ages 6 to 10, Grades 1 to 4

Help your child build confidence through this colorful activity book!

Confidence is like a muscle, and everyone’s confidence can benefit from a bit of coaching to stretch and strengthen that muscle. Following tried and tested techniques, children will learn how to build empathy and interact with confidence. From dealing with friendship wobble to embracing mistakes and coping with change, the activities at the heart of this book are designed to help children discover just what they can do.

While starting a new school year is an exciting time, it can also be quite daunting. Worrying about going back to school or starting somewhere new is totally normal, whether you're worried about friendships, schoolwork, or something else entirely! Designed to help children find their inner confidence, the Self-Esteem Starters for Kids activity book series is full of practical advice and strategies for dealing with wobbles and worries. The two books are written by inclusivity expert Beth Cox in collaboration with Confidence Coach Natalie Costa, addressing mental health in a positive framework with no shame or blame.
