Teaching your preschooler the basic things they need to know to start Kindergarten prepared to succeed is not hard. All you need are the tools that you can easily learn by attending our First Teachers @ Home one hour weekly classes or buy The Curriculum, available on Amazon. But teaching your child about something that scares children and adults alike is very hard. Whether it is tornadoes in the South and Midwest, hurricanes in the Northeast or along the coastal water of the Gulf, each season seems to bring more threatening storms that occur more often. Young children aren’t always able to tell you what they are feeling. They hear the television or radio news reports or hear people in their home or community talking about a storm. They repeat stories about people getting killed, whole communities destroyed. Children take these stories literally and personally. Some unfortunate children actually experienced a storm and may have already been affected. Upside Down Storm allows children and adults a way to live through a particular event that doesn’t physically hurt them. It gives parents and children a way to start a conversation that may be sorely needed. And hearing about a proven strategy that has saved lives can be helpful too. The best way to teach this book is to stop after each page and talk with your child about what they see on the pages. Ask them if they can see themselves talking or behaving like this little boy. Ask them if they are scared about other things. And please share with them your fears and how it is okay for grownups to be scared. This book is a part of our First Teachers @ Home Curriculum. Our program gives families the tools to teach children important skills that they need to succeed in Kindergarten and beyond.
