كتاب الأرنب الذي فقد قفزته مع الدمية

The story’s message about pausing to think before acting really clicked with my 6-year-old, and the counselor’s steps are simple enough for her to remember. We read it twice in a row the first night, and the plush rabbit’s floppy ears made her giggle every time she tried to make him hop along.

My son struggles with impulse control, and the counselor's steps in this book finally gave us a concrete way to talk about it. The plush rabbit is soft and a perfect prop for acting out the calming strategies.

The plush rabbit is the real draw here—my daughter carries it everywhere, and the story about Ricky using a counselor to calm down actually sparked a good conversation about taking breaths before acting out. Takes a few reads to drive the point home, but the combo of book and toy makes it stick.
