Description
For young children, learning to forgive-when they've been let down or had their feelings are hurt-can take time. Help children develop their forgiveness skills and learn how to accept an apology and move on without holding grudges. At the same time, encourage children to let go of disappointment and to accept when things don't go the way they hope. Back matter includes advice for teaching forgiveness at home, at school, and in childcare.
