Grow with Me Poetry is perfect for you if...
you want to learn more about the practice of mindfulness and how you can “sneak” it into the lives of children?
you enjoy a clever rhyme? you want to learn a unique way to connect with children using a combination of poetry, journaling and engaging conversation? you want to assure children that they are never alone in mundanely humorous to anxiety producing experiences? you want a memory book of growth and maturity? |
Grow with Me Poetry uses the practice of mindfulness as a means of introducing poetry to children and early teens. In Grow with Me Poetry, you will find both a primer on mindfulness as well as a guide to incorporating that practice into how you read the rhyming lines of poetry that follow.
Unique to Grow with Me Poetry are the P.S. and P.S.S. inclusions after each poem. The P.S. or Poetry Simplified, is meant to take the mystery out of why or what the author has written, often the most intimidating part of interpreting poetry. The P.S.S, or Personal Soul Space is the where you will have the opportunity to engage, to converse, to learn about each other, to grow. You will both be journaling and drawing on the pages that follow each poem. When a child grows into their own reading skills and pen, the book is theirs to continue. Once complete, it becomes a treasured keepsake.
Grow with Me Poetry is decidedly G-Rated. The content is both humorous and poignant and is suitable for preschool through early teens. Grow with Me Poetry is meant for novice to expert, child to adult, clinician to teacher without exception. It is both a sign of our times and a gift to our children.
