Help your child discover the Mind Garden where feelings and thoughts live together!
Does your little one sometimes feel like a whirlwind of energy, or get frustrated when things don't go as planned? Meet Mr. Owl and Little Monkey the two best friends who live inside every child's mind.
- Little Monkey is full of big feelings! He loves to jump, run, and build tall towers.
- Mr. Owl is calm and wise. He loves to think, observe, and move slowly.
In The Magic Bridge: From Heart to Head, children are introduced to a beautiful, easy-to-understand metaphor for emotional regulation. Through soft pastel illustrations and a gentle narrative, kids will learn that while Little Monkey (our heart/emotions) and Mr. Owl (our head/logic) are very different, they are connected by a Magic Bridge.
This book helps children:
- Identify Emotions: Recognize the difference between big energy feelings and quiet thinking moments.
- Self-Regulation: Understand how to cross the bridge to find calm when emotions become overwhelming.
- Mindfulness: Practice being present in their own Mind Garden.
- Communication: Gives parents and educators a simple vocabulary (The Monkey and the Owl) to talk about behavior and feelings.
Perfect for fans of The Color Monster and My Mouth is a Volcano, this book is a must-have for parents, teachers, and counselors looking for a soothing, effective way to teach Social-Emotional Learning (SEL).
Best for ages 3-7.
