Parents and children are under a great deal of stress during this time of social distancing and self isolation. In order to offer support during this time, Slumberkins is offering a free Alpaca book to everyone who needs it. The company also has a page of free downloadable activities and resources available as well.
Children find comfort in sharing their concerns with others during times like these. Alpaca encourages little ones to express their feelings with loved ones who can help them manage their fears and emotions. The Alpaca book supports anxiety management, coping skills and stress relief.
According to their website, Slumberkins stories use research-based techniques to teach children important social-emotional skills. Through pro-active and supportive narratives, each collection is intentionally crafted to build resilient, caring, and confident children.
