Description
A beautiful tool for introducing children to the interconnectedness of all of life! My kids have used divination cards before and especially love Steven Farmer s, but they have never had a deck so perfectly aligned with their interests. The guidance in the accompanying book is just right, with each appealing animal giving voice to children s genuine feelings and concerns while leading them gently to their own inner knowing. Parents will love the insightful tips for extending their kids' understanding and suggestions for additional integration of the concepts. An absolute must for today s conscious families! --Lisa McCourt, author of Juicy Joy 7 Simple Steps to Your Glorious Gutsy Self, and I Love You, Stinky FaceChildren by nature have a magical connection with animals and see them as friends with special meanings. In Dr. Steven Farmer's Children s Spirit Animal Cards, the animals are brought to life with special messages that can help your children or grandchildren as they expand the understanding of themselves from a different perspective. The cards are beautifully illustrated and will be something to be treasured for many years to come. --Carol Ritberger, PhD, author of Healing Happens with Your HelpIn my many years of practice as a child and adolescent psychotherapist I always look for tools to encourage my clients to shine their bright spirit and unique brilliance through joyful family activity, connection to nature, animals, and creative expression. These, I believe, are key aspects for building self esteem and a healthy sense of self, along with aiding children develop their innate intuitive abilities and gift of imagination. I am delighted to find that these cards and guide book offer that and much more! The illustrations are warm and inviting, the soft message from each spirit animal offer not only guidance but also suggested activities for application and growth. There is a parent information section and even a list of ways to help animals and make a difference in the world! Animals and nature are great teachers of compassion, kindness, responsibility, and the importance of play. For these reasons I feel that this is a kit that every parent must consider to help in the growing years, especially for those extra sensitive or spirited children! --Shiri R.
