Real children need real experiences with real people to grow up happy, healthy, strong, kind and resilient. The second edition of this popular book explores the 10 essential building blocks that help children build resilience and self-esteem in our chaotic, uncertain world.

We can't change the world, however we can help our children to develop emotional buoyancy and competence by experiencing lifes joys and successes, as well as its challenges and setbacks.

  • Praise for Real Kids... "'Real Kids in an Unreal World' is a gem of wisdom, plain and simple. The book would appear to have been published from the 'tree of knowledge' and is a very good guidebook to keeping kids normal in today's fast paced world. - Mamamia.com.au "The book explores the ten essential building blocks that help children build resilience and self-esteem ... If that sounds lofty, I assure you, it's not. Within each of the descriptions about the building blocks are lots of straightforward tips for parents ranging from practical suggestions for encouraging plenty of play and tips for setting boundaries through to strategies for managing stress. I like that this book is presented in a simple, easy-to-delve-into format." - Babology.com.au
