I know from actual teens that this is an amazing relaxation process! It's very peaceful and understanding. It's very good for teens dealing with anxiety, anger or just everyday stress! It really prepares you for everyday situations by teaching you breathing exercises and affirmations so you know what to do next time you feel stressed or anxious! A real winner!

It provides a safe place where teens can be themselves while not worrying about peer pressure or living up to any ones expectations. It is motivating, encouraging and instructional at the same time! Additional uplifting music sound tracks are provided to further enhance their relaxation experience. These proven techniques provide tools for teens trying to make their way in today s world. Teens are encouraged to make good choices and believe in themselves while managing stress and anger. Great for teens entering Middle School through High School.

My 2 year old son LOVES this DVD! It has been a tremendous tool in helping with potty training. He sits on his potty in front of the T.V. and watches. It has really helped him with the whole process!

Potty for Him 3 out of 5 stars.

I didn't like the DVD, the book is much better and I thought it was expensive for what was offered. My son who is 3 years old, didn't really like the DVD either.

Great video for boys 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This is a great video for boys because it shows boys and using the potty. My 2 year-old son is very interested in watching it and will sit still for this short video. Good for beginning the potty training process.

Editorial Review:

Toilet training! It can be agonizing, frustrating, elusive, and seemingly impossible. Whatever it is, it usually isn't easy. At last there's an honest, amusing book about the struggles and triumphs of toilet training. It's available in "Hers" and "His" editions to help parents and toddlers work through the trauma of training.

2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

This is a great book. It uses all the correct terms, shows the child how to say the word, and presents the facts in a fun and easy way for children to understand, not to mention a few giggles to boot!

Great for the younger children 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I have two children, ages 6 & 8. Both of them sat down and had full attention the entire time I read it! Filled with tons of niffy facts...and gross ones too! Even I learned a few things!

Make learning fun for your kids 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Who says science has to be boring? Our kids (7, 6, 4) are about the ideal ages (better for the 7 year old than the 4 year old though). I bet 10 year olds would still enjoy it. Our daughter enjoyed it as much as our sons - don't think it is just for boys. Kids have an odd fascination with all of the topics in the book (e.g., snot). The grossness draws them in, and the text is engaging so that they actually learn something while having fun.

Another gross book which can't be put down! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I bought this book for my three sons because they (and I) LOVED Grossology. Once again, they (and I) were laughing and 'grossing out' while they read. If science were taught this way in school, I'm sure my boys would look forward to learning all the more. Highly recommended for reading to your children or leaving them to read alone...all while laughing your heart out, with a load of 'eeewws' included. As my oldest son said, "It's 'grosser' than the other...'grosser' and just as funny."

Editorial Review:

We have news for you: You are gross. (And you thought we’d never find out!)

Educational 5 out of 5 stars.
18 of 19 people found this review helpful.

This book explains about how the human body deals with reflexes. It gets a little technical, but a four or five year old can definately understand the content. I enjoyed reading this book to my children because even I learned a little that I either had not learned or had forgotten.

Young, inquisitive minds 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 3 people found this review helpful.

Even if your youngster hasn't asked, this book helps the "thinking" process of asking "why". When this question is asked about things that they can understand, it begins the process of asking why about lots of other things.

Great for those who also ask why on their own.

Editorial Review:

Ka-choo! Brrr. Yawnnnn.

Have you ever wondered what makes you sneeze when you're in a dusty room? Or shiver when you get out of the bathtub? Or yawn when you're tired? All of these actions are reflexes. Your body makes them happen even though you don't tell it to.

Budding young scientists will be amazed as Melvin Berger and Paul Meisel reveal the mysteries behind the reflexes that happen in our bodies every day and offer fun-filled experiments to try on family and friends. Let's Read and Find Out Science, Stage 2.

A great book for sleep time problems 5 out of 5 stars.
9 of 9 people found this review helpful.

Dawn Huebner has written a wonderful book about helping children deal with nighttime fears. I am child psychologist who specializes in anxious children and I have been recommending this book to the parents of my patients. I use the book as an adjunt to my therapy. However, parents and children can easily benefit from this book on their own. I What I like about this book is that it creates a sense of fun about dealing with anxieties at night. It has some great suggestions about playful games that have a purpose as in her"The Famous Fear-Melting Super Hiding Game". I always value books that give me ideas and a vocabulary about how to talk with children. Dr. Huebner book has many suggestions about how to use child friendly language to deal with nighttime fears. My child clients have liked doing the drawing and other assignments contain in the book. This book will be my standard recommendation for children who struggle with those anxious feelings at bedtime.

Editorial Review:

Wouldn't it be great if you could climb into bed, snuggle under your covers, and fall asleep without any fuss or fear? Without listening for noises or thinking about bad guys? Without an extra drink, or an extra hug, or an extra trip to the bathroom? Bedtime is tough for many kids. If you're a kid who dreads your bed, and are convinced that nothing short of magic will make nighttime easier, this book is for you.

What to Do When You Dread Your Bed guides children and their parents through the cognitive-behavioral techniques used to treat problems with sleep. Fears, busy brains, restless bodies, and overdependence on parents are all tackled as children gain the skills they need for more peaceful nights. This interactive self-help book is the complete resource for educating, motivating, and empowering children to fall asleep and stay asleep--like magic!

Good book for preschoolers, but one page too many 4 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

I was very excited to receive this book after having read a glowing review in my local newspaper. The details seem to be just right for 4-8 year olds, the published target audience. The author deals with most of the body differences between the genders, as well as changes that each can expect while growing up [though oddly omitting any mention of breast changes or nursing a baby]. While intercourse is not noted as the means for fertilizing the egg to make a baby, she does go into appropriate detail about female and male reproductive organs. My only reservation for sharing this with my 5 and 4 year old is one page that talks about 'touching yourself.' While I am not so naive to think this is not going to happen, it seems that this topic might better suit 8-12 year olds than younger children. While the author handles the issue even without mentioning the word 'masturbation,' my personal opinion is that my own children don't even need to have the concept introduced to them yet! We have decided to keep this book and wait to share it until they seem more self-aware and are asking questions, which at this point, they are not.
Overall, though, great book!

Editorial Review:

“Mom, where do babies come from?” Many parents live in fear of the day their child asks this question—which inevitably happens, often as early as the preschool years. Here is a picture book designed especially for young children who are becoming aware of their bodies, but aren’t ready to learn about sexual intercourse. Written with warmth and honesty, Amazing You! presents clear and age-appropriate information about reproduction, birth, and the difference between girls’ and boys’ bodies. Lynne Cravath’s lighthearted illustrations enliven the text, making this a book that parents will gladly share with their young ones.

I like this book because it taught me all different things when i was littler. Like how to brush my teeth, floss, wash my hands, wash my hair, get exercise,how to deal with a cold, the right food to eat, and how its important at the end of the day to get your rest. This book taught me so much and im thankful for that.

The book is great and has wonderful healthy positive messages. My kids love it and ask to read it over and over. The only dissapointment is that it still has one page with the old food guide pyramid.

Staying healthy and self esteem 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Some really important messages in this Seuss style beginner book including
the importance of hygiene, exercise, good nutrition, body safety, recognising and talking about own feelings, everyone is special and unique.
Sometimes the rhymes lose a bit of their rhythm, but overall I think it is a fair adaption of Seuss style, but most importantly it is a fun way to begin concepts of taking care and valuing yourself with young children.

Editorial Review:

With the help of the staff and equipment at a Seussian spa, the Cat in the Hat explains the basics of healthy living, from eating right and getting enough exercise and sleep, to having a positive body image, to the distance and speed of a typical sneeze!

Editorial Review:

** The only OCD book for children and adolescents that has a companion book for parents**

Up and Down the Worry Hill helps parents and professionals explain Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder to children clearly and simply through the eyes of a child. Children will identify with Casey's initial struggle with OCD, his sense of hope when he learns about treatment, his relief that neither he nor his parents are to blame, and eventually, his victory over OCD.

In the US alone, there are over 1 million children with OCD. The author's unique story and metaphor of the Worry Hill makes OCD and its treatment easy for children to understand. Now is a time for optimism and hope because OCD can be treated successfully. This book, along with its companion guide for parents What to do when your Child has Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Strategies and Solutions brings hope and help to countless children and families who suffer from this baffling illness. The metaphor of the Worry Hill is a common thread that weaves through both books.
