Details Condition: Brand New Format: Paperback ISBN: 9780063306271 Publisher: Harvest (HarperCollins) Age Range: For caregivers of children from infancy to age 8 Overview Tiny Humans, Big Emotions is a New York Times bestselling guide from early childhood experts Alyssa Blask Campbell, M.Ed. and Lauren Elizabeth Stauble, M.S. It offers parents and carers a practical, science-backed roadmap for handling tantrums, meltdowns and defiance without shame or punishment. Rooted in the authors' Collaborative Emotion Processing (CEP) method, the book helps grown-ups understand what's really happening in a child's developing brain during emotional outbursts, and how to respond in ways that build lifelong emotional intelligence. About the Book For generations, children have been told to stop crying, calm down or stop making a scene whenever big feelings surfaced. As research into brain development has advanced, a new wave of conscious, emotionally responsive parenting has emerged - and Tiny Humans, Big Emotions sits right at the heart of it. Alyssa Blask Campbell and Lauren Stauble draw on years of work with families and educators to explain why tantrums, meltdowns and defiant moments are a normal, necessary part of a young child's emotional development, not signs of bad behaviour or poor parenting. The book walks readers through the authors' Collaborative Emotion Processing method step by step, showing carers how to stay regulated themselves, name and validate a child's feelings, and guide little ones towards healthier ways of processing frustration, anger, disappointment and fear. Real-world scenarios - from supermarket meltdowns to bedtime battles and separation anxiety - are used throughout to show the CEP approach in action, making the concepts easy to apply straight away. Rather than offering quick behavioural fixes, the authors focus on building emotional foundations that serve children well into the school years and beyond. Written for parents, grandparents, childcare professionals and educators of children from infancy to around age eight, it is both a compassionate reassurance and a practical toolkit for anyone navigating the daily emotional rollercoaster of raising young children.
