Book Overview:
Pairing simplified mindfulness principles with each letter of the alphabet, ABC Mindful Me features colorful illustrations of children and animals, as well as playful rhymes to explain each concept to toddlers (and their parents!).
A fun read for the entire family, ABC Mindful Me is not only perfect for teaching toddlers their ABCs, but also for introducing them to key mindfulness tenants which promote physical and mental wellness, proper breathing, compassion, gratitude, and kindness.
These key concepts will help to grow young readers' concentration, listening skills, and ability to manage emotions, stress, and anxiety.
My Review:
There's all sorts of ABC books out there, but this has to be one of my favorites. ABC Mindful Me is a hardcover book with illustrations of children doing things for others, and doing things to make them more mindful. Each letter of the alphabet is recognized. For instance, W is for Walk and Q is for Quiet. Along with the illustrations and words are short descriptions told in rhythmic form. As an example, Kindness shows a girl helping a cat out of a tree with the narration "Do a kind thing. Help someone who's in trouble - Happiness that is shared counts for double!"
ABC Mindful Me is a board book from front to back, so it should last for years. To accompany the ABCs, there's also a short narration on the definition of mindfulness. If you'd like to take a hands-on approach with this book, there's short instructions and descriptions about Emotion Rocks, Mandala Art, Nature Art, and a Thankfulness Tree.
One person will win an ABC Mindful Me children's book.

My favorite letter is D because it is the letter that starts the name of my favorite person in the world, my husband.
It varies, depending on my reasoning at the time.
Today I'd say it is both P and Z because when I make the sound that they make it makes our 20-month-old grandson crack up laughing.
