Little and Brave is an interactive book about anxiety, targeting children, 5-8 years old. The application aims to enable organic conversations about anxiety between parent and child.The content of the book was developed by child psychologist Kristoffer Alberts, based in Sweden.
The purpose is to:
Help children understand what anxiety is
Start conversations about anxiety, which is something children often try to avoid at this age
Give comfort and help children understand that they are not alone when it comes to being fearful
Motivate children to challenge their fears
This app is not a manual for getting rid of fears, but rather it’s intended as a preparation for starting to work with them.
As a parent, it can be a delicate act of balance to be understanding and at the same time not let a child’s fear take over the family’s daily life. If feeling unsure as to how to help your child overcome fear, don’t hesitate to consult a psychologist. If the child has a serious phobia that dominates the family’s daily life, it’s always best to get professional help.
