Ntombi's Path - Davies, Lorna

. .

Résumé :
Ntombi's Path was written to coach children who are fearful to try new things, learn to overcome that fear and stretch out of their comfort zone so that nothing holds them back. Consider this book if you have a concern that your child is not doing as much as they used to, has stopped going to things, or won't start a new club or class, and you are worried that if this is not addressed, your child will eventually stop all their hobbies and interests, their world will get smaller, they won't learn to push past fear, and therefore they will not meet their fullest potential. When a child is worried about trying new things, they may cry or get angry when you talk about it, or you might hear them say, I've never done this before. I feel sick and don't want to go/do it/try it/be here. I don't know how to do it. Wise for My Size, Ntombi's Path, is part of a wider coaching program for parents and children. It is a powerful, empowering program that teaches children essential life skills through activities, games, and stories. The Wise for My Size program helps young people to develop soaring self-esteem strong self-confidence, achieve their goals, manage mistakes, handle stress and anxiety, build resilience, and deal with peer pressure. Ntombi's Path has been written to help children who are facing a challenge, push out of their comfort zone, and find the courage and tools to build a life without limits.

Biographie:

Through her work, and as a mother of two children Lorna became aware of the importance of mindset when children face adversity and challenge; it's the key ingredient to success. As an occupational therapist Lorna works with the medium of play and fun as the principal 'occupation' of childhood, and this leads very naturally to developing a programme that uses stories, games and activities to teach valuable life skills to children and those young at heart.
