Book Overview
Every parent, caregiver--and toddler--knows the misery that comes with meltdowns and temper tantrums. Through rhythmic text and warm illustrations, this gentle, reassuring book offers toddlers simple tools to release strong feelings, express them, and calm themselves down. Children learn to use their calm-down place--a quiet space where they can cry, ask for a hug, sing to themselves, be rocked in a grown-up's arms, talk about feelings, and breathe: "One, two, three . . . I'm calm as can be. I'm taking care of me." After a break, toddlers will feel like new--and adults will, too. Books include tips for parents and caregivers.

It's not the best but ok.

I will start by saying I loved this book, but my 2.5 yr old hated it. We no longer call it "time out" we call it "calm downtime" and we sing the little rhyme from the book when he gets worked up and he hates it. I think the general themes in the book are solid though. I do suggest you read the rhyme multiple times to really get it to stick, but I loved this book and will keep reading it despite my toddler screaming "noo nooo calm down time".
