Empathy is an essential part of being human: it allows us to connect with others, which in turn opens doors for us to happiness and success. Though everyone is born with an inherent capacity for empathy, children have the power to grow and re-build their natural supply, and even 'learn' to be more understanding towards others.

This pithy and practical guide provides early years professionals with the tools to make empathy the foundation for their work. It reveals where the roots of empathy lie, how to prioritise it in practice, and how it manifests itself in young developing brains. It includes simple teaching strategies and creative ideas for empathy-building games and activities, enabling you to help children grow up as happier, friendlier, more thoughtful individuals. This book is an essential resource for anyone working with small children.

Industry Reviews

This book by Helen Garnett is genuinely very interesting. It's packed full of history, quotes, facts and strategies and I have learnt so much from it.
...I particularly loved the superb strategies suggested in this book. They include ways to help preschool age children develop their theory of mind - which is fascinating.
