Description

This latest installment in the bestselling What To Do series tackles children amp rsquo s feelings of anxiety around current events and what is portrayed in the news. Scary news is an inevitable part of life. This book can support and guide efforts to help scary news seem a bit more manageable for young people. Whether from television news reports, the car radio, digital media, or adult discussions, children are often bombarded with information about the world around them. When the events being described include violence, extreme weather events, a disease outbreak, or discussions of more dispersed threats such as climate change, children may become frightened and overwhelmed. Parents and caregivers can be prepared to help them understand and process the messages around them by using this book. What to Do When the News Scares You provides a way to help children put scary events into perspective. And, if children start to worry or become anxious about things they amp rsquo ve heard, there are ideas to help them calm down and cope. This book also helps children identify reporters amp rsquo efforts to add excitement to the story which may also make threats seem more imminent, universal, and extreme. Read and complete the activities in What to Do When the News Scares You with your child to help them to understand the news in context-who, what, where, when, how-as a means of introducing a sense of perspective. Also available in Spanish Qu amp eacute Hacer Cuando las Noticias te Asustan: Gu amp iacute a para Ni amp ntilde os para Entender las Noticias Actuales
