Hi,
Does anyone have any recommendations for books to start introducing emotions to a 2.5 year old? He's started to hit out at things when angry and he loves books so thought it might be a nice to have some we could read to him.

Thanks Smile

The worrysaurus works a treat with D's when he's worried.
And be brave little penguin for when he is scared of new things.

I like Pip and Posy. Very simple story and great illustrations. Easy to talk about emotions on every page. The snowy day actually has pip push posy over and then they resolve it.

My DC had one called Happy Colours. We actually got it free from the HV because they were doing a push for Welsh language books. It is in Welsh with English translation, but I'm sure it will be available in just English somewhere.
