Omschrijving

Help kids learn that patience takes practice, and waiting isn't wasted time

Waiting is part of life--but that doesn't mean it's easy. In Waiting Is Not Forever, children learn that waiting doesn't have to mean doing nothing. Whether they're waiting for a turn, for dinner, or for something bigger, this reassuring book helps kids ages 4-7 understand that waiting time can be filled with noticing, imagining, creating, and playing. With simple text and bright, inclusive illustrations, this book encourages children to stay optimistic and calm, even when things seem to take forever.

In kid-friendly language, this book gives children tools for managing the feelings that often come with waiting, like frustration, restlessness, and boredom. It encourages positive self-talk ("I'm calm and patient!") and shows how everyday waiting moments can become opportunities for creativity and fun. Part of the award-winning Best Behavior(R) series, this title supports young children to learn a valuable life skill.

Normalizes waiting and the uncomfortable feelings that can come with it
Teaches ways to stay engaged during wait times--without relying on screens
Encourages positive self-talk and calm behaviors during moments of anticipation
Uses relatable, inclusive illustrations to show kids waiting in everyday situations
Expands on the themes in the board book with the same title

Waiting Is Not Forever is a helpful tool for parents, caregivers, educators, and counselors who want to support children in building patience and resilience. It can be read before or during waiting situations--like car rides, long lines, or transitions--to spark discussion and set expectations. A special back matter section for adults offers tips and simple activities to help children stay busy, regulate their emotions, and practice waiting with calm and confidence. Great for children who read the board book edition and need an expanded reminder when behaviors resurface.
