Raise your hand if you are worried about your kids having too much screen time! Raise both hands if you are even more worried about screen time now that most schools are doing virtual learning! This past year has brought us more screen time than ever before. From virtual schooling and virtual holidays to less options for entertainment outside the home, there has probably never been a time when we have used screens as much as we have lately. For parents who are worried, we wanted to share our favorite books about screen time to help come up with a plan as as family.

Teaching Kids to Work Through a Bad Mood
When it comes to battling a bad mood, we love turning to books. When my daughter is angry, I love to pull out a book about anger that I know will make her laugh, or will remind her how to deal with it. If she is worried or frustrated, I try to find books that will help her combat those big emotions. So we are thrilled to share some of our favorite new books about emotions for kids, and introduce you to some stories for battling a bad mood.

New Children’s Books about Giving Thanks
The Thanksgiving season is upon us while I write this. So we are taking an extra look at how we can show our thanks and gratitude to those around us. While we always focus on gratitude during the month of November, it is important that we also remember to give thanks during the other months as well. These children’s books about giving thanks offer reminders of gratitude that can be shared all throughout the year. While some of these books have a fall theme to them, some of them can be shared any time. I hope they encourage you and your children to share gratitude all year long!
