Synopsis:

Understanding the emotions of yourself and others creates a path to friendship. Understanding emotions - their own and others' - poses a major challenge for children with autism spectrum and other social cognitive challenges, causing frustration and misunderstanding and often behavioural outbursts. Let's Talk Emotions Helping Children with Social Cognitive Deficits, Including AS, HFA, and NVLD, Learn to Understand and Express Empathy and Emotions, a collection of easy-to-use activities for children ages 4-18, gives parents, teachers, and others a valuable resource. Through a wide variety of experiences, children learn to identify and respond to their own feelings as well as the feelings of others, thereby improving their chances of maintaining and establishing fulfilling and successful social relationships. The appendix offers many activities and worksheets for emotions discussed in the book.
