If they forget to use gentle hands for a moment (as all children do), read the book again for a friendly reminder.
 
This book is perfect to use with children in their home setting or in an early childhood education setting.  It provides a tangible way for you to expain why rough hands are not okay. The simple words and real life images are extremely effective in portraying the message to toddlers and preschoolers alike.
 
The book is small - 130 mm x 130 mm so it can be easily popped in a handbag and taken to the park, playgroup or other social setting and used to help reinforce the importance of gentle hands outside the home too.
