WhenI’mfeelingscared
By: Text and illustration: Trace Moroney / Publisher in Arabic: Dar al-Huda
It’s easy for anyone to be scared of some things, like the dark or dangerous animals! But lots of other things aren’t really as scary as they seem. Each of the books in this series has been carefully designed to help children better understand their feelings, and in doing so, develop confidence and self-esteem as they grow. Talking about feelings teaches children that it is normal to feel sad, or angry, or scared at times. With greater tolerance of challenging feelings, children become free to enjoy their world, to feel secure in their abilities, and to be happy.

It is important that we give legitimacy to our child’s fear and show them our understanding, and even if it seems unfounded to us, their fear is real, and they turn to us, asking to feel safe. We can reassure them by talking with them and telling them that we all get scared from different things, and that fear is not shameful. We can support them by talking to them about what triggers their fear, and by thinking with them about practical ways that will enable them to eliminate it.
On the other hand, a child’s fear may be reduced if they gain self-confidence and feel that their parents appreciate and love them. Spending special time with our child, playing with them, reading a book with them, listening to them and having a conversation with them, helps them discover their abilities and seek to develop them, which helps them deal with difficult feelings, such as: fear, anger, sadness, jealousy, etc.
