The Wishing Shelf Book Awards BRONZE WINNER and winner of the prestigious MOM’S CHOICE SILVER AWARD. The Forever Tree is an interactive and nurturing narrative that helps children explore emotions, thoughts and feelings. It can be a fun and nurturing activity for a child and parent or carer (or other adult) to share together at any time - but especially at times of stress, change, sadness or difficulty. Imagine you are like the Forever Tree - seasons and weather come and pass away again. Your strong roots keep you safe and sound. Photocopy and cut out the page of different coloured leaves - these represent different emotions or situations - and use the ideas to encourage a child to talk about their feelings and thoughts. To share with a child aged seven to twelve. ’...a world where children can get in touch with themselves...bright and beautiful visuals...inspiring, well thought out...’ R. Dzemo, Readers’ Favorite.
