I watched the video of Creature of Habit that was linked, and I thought this book was so charming and did a great job representing the benefits of flexible thinking in terms of recognizing each other’s individual approaches to life, and being willing to try some different ways of doing things in order to enjoy life together. With those positive feelings regarding flexible thinking that the book left me with, I was so excited to learn that science has shown that children can be trained to strengthen this skill, and that this will make it easier for kiddos to collaborate with peers, teachers, and parents/caregivers. I never thought about how important it is to work on being willing to be flexible sometimes! Thanks :)
Thanks, Jennifer! This was one of my favorite books we reviewed recently because the images are just so darn cute! And I won’t say no to tropical fruit in a kids book 🍍I love how it shows how routine and doing things in the same way can be helpful and comforting AND how breaking out of our comfort zones can help us make new connections.
