A must-listen for every parent

From basic manners to problem-solving, it covers so much. The content is engaging, practical, and easy to implement in daily life. My child has gained so much confidence, and I feel more confident as a parent too. It’s great to see my kid learning skills that will stick with him for years.

What a wonderful book for kids!

This book is amazing! If you have a young child or know someone who does, get this for them right away! It's the best explanation of how kids feel that I've ever heard! The examples of how kids think about things and what they can compare them to are wonderful! The tone and inflection are perfect. I would recommend that every teacher and parent of kids this age teach feelings and emotions using this book!

An Essential Book for 8 to 10 years Old

Essential Life Skills Every 8-Year-Old Needs to Know: A Guide to Help Young Boys and Girls Succeed in Life by Diane Pope is an excellent audiobook designed for 8- to 10-year-olds. My undergraduate major was child development, and I love reading what they teach children. I love this audiobook. The teaching was inviting, fitting to the age, and interactive, making it highly suitable for children in this age group. I wish this book were available when my son was growing up. Emotional intelligence, social skills, communication, time management, decision-making, empathy, sharing, and learning to breathe in and out to calm yourself are incredible lessons and tools every young child should have. I can't wait to listen to the next age group of skills. I recommend this audiobook to parents and children between 8 and 10.

Essential Skills

Essential Life Skills Every 8-Year-Old Needs to Know is a fantastic guide for kids and parents to listen to together. It reviews many areas, such as making friends, having confidence, being prepared for school, and more. I picture this audiobook being listened to in the car and used as a talking point between a child and their parent. It would be helpful to listen to and discuss in small chunks.

Raise the confidence and bring the skills

When we teach being yourself is the best thing you can do for yourself. People/kids might get scared, but people must be brave to face their fears. We won't go through exciting adventures without wheels and we must stay focus and move with our flow. Its fine to have different feelings. Like the author covers, our friends can understand that we are all different no matter what the world throws at us. The narrator was great, youre going to love this audible.
