Little Meerkat's Big Panic: A Story About Learning New Ways to Feel Calm by Jane Evans and illustrator Izzy Bean


Little Meerkat's Big Panic: A Story About Learning New Ways to Feel Calm by Jane Evans and illustrator Izzy Bean.


Little Meerkat's Bug Panic will teach your little ones a lot of about using words to articulate their emotions and feel comfort from it. The Panic reminded me of the panic that I have regarding missing get down at the right bus or train stop. I wonder if may be I will be too deep in the bus that I wont get to the front in time to get down, before the bus starts back up again.
But imagine if 'your kid can empathize feelings of a person as 'scared, sad and worried' and know that it feels 'safe, relaxed and calm again' after something.,  then thye have enough vocabulary to recognize the signs and need of comfort both by self and others.
You must have seen countless parent- child conversations where the kids are overwhelmed by their emotions. Preschools do a great job of equipping your kids with recognition of their emotional states.
The illustrations are cute too.
