This workbook supports children in overcoming sleep challenges through engaging activities and a story about Neon the Ninja, helping them fight off nightmares effectively.
The Neon the Ninja Activity Book for Children who Struggle with Sleep and Nightmares is a creative workbook designed to help children address their sleep challenges. Through an engaging narrative featuring Neon the Ninja, children are introduced to a character who uses his special powers to combat nightmares and soothe nighttime fears. The story is complemented by a variety of activities aimed at helping children express their worries and develop coping strategies, making bedtime a more comforting experience.
Neon the Ninja has a unique mission: to protect children from the fears that often accompany nighttime. Many children experience nightmares, but with Neon's guidance, they can learn to harness their imagination and creativity to keep those fears at bay. This workbook not only provides a fun and interactive way for children to engage with their feelings but also equips them with practical tools to promote relaxation and positive thinking, transforming their nighttime routine.
In addition to the story and activities, the Neon the Ninja Activity Book offers valuable insights and strategies for parents, caregivers, and professionals working with children aged 5-10. Grounded in therapeutic techniques, including cognitive-behavioral strategies, this resource is a treasure trove of information designed to alleviate sleep-related difficulties. It serves as a perfect companion to the standalone picture book about Neon, enhancing the overall experience for young readers and their families.
It is certainly a book that will be welcomed by any parent or carer who has to deal with the problem of childhood nightmares... It's friendly and reassuring and shows children they are not alone - there's plenty of help to be had and the activities build confidence and conquer fears. Extensive and comprehensive, there's plenty of food for thought. -- Parents in Touch
Neon the Ninja captures children's need to feel safe incredibly powerfully. The story itself is colourful, eye catching and kept my granddaughter transfixed. The activities are carefully crafted to be fun whilst capturing the painful anxieties some children face. The book is not complete without experiencing the magical craft section and is an essential resource for all children's practitioners. -- Dr.h.c Jenny Molloy, Author of Hackney Child, Adviser and Trainer - Looked after Children and Care Leavers
Parents, carers and professionals would find this book a useful resource in helping with sleep related issues and nightmares... The book, whilst focussed on supporting children to overcome their fears and deal with nightmares, I believe has a broader application in supporting children, whether affected or not by early experiences of trauma, to manage fears and anxiety in general.
Both myself and my friend Liz (Sleep Scotland counsellor), were impressed with the depth of the resource and the scope of activities provided. My daughter, Jenna, who always likes to help try out resources, really thought the book was fun and helpful.
