If I Do Wrong. I Say, I'm Sorry!: Gentle Affirmations for Toddlers Who Struggle with Apologizing
Suzanne T. Christian,Two Little RavensAre you having trouble getting your toddler to say "I'm sorry" after pushing, grabbing, bumping into someone, or using mean words?
If I Do Wrong. I Say, I'm Sorry! provides parents, caregivers, and guardians with an effective and gentle tool to teach young children about apologies, making things right, and trying again.
Written specifically for toddlers ages 2 to 4, this book focuses on positive social-emotional learning through everyday scenarios children experience: taking toys without asking, making messes, forgetting to take turns, hurting someone's feelings, or being too rough with a family pet.
Each page shows the reader how the child can respond: stopping, returning the item, checking on a friend, cleaning up, saying kind words, and apologizing.
If I Do Wrong. I Say, I'm Sorry! helps your little one learn how to:
- Say "I'm sorry" in a proper and age-appropriate way.
- Develop empathy and friendship skills.
- Learn that big emotions are okay, but hurting another person is not.
- Become more responsible after small mistakes.
- Improve behavior at home, at school, or at daycare.
Using short affirmations and easy-to-repeat wording, If I Do Wrong. I Say, I'm Sorry! was written for frequent use in different environments, from daily story time at home to classroom circle time or calm-down activities at daycare centers.
This makes it easier for parents and other adults to have meaningful conversations with kids about saying sorry, using kind words, making amends, and trying again.
If you are looking for a toddler book about saying sorry, kindness, manners, friendship, empathy, gentle hands, and emotions, this is a supportive choice for your child, classroom, or daycare setting.
