Tools and tips for parents, teachers, and kids!
The Team Supercrew Book Series is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a social-emotional therapy that focuses on the ways that our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are interconnected. Our thoughts create our feelings! When we develop the tools to change our negative thoughts, we learn how to regulate our emotions in a positive way.
Team Supercrew helps children recognize big feelings and have the tools to regulate emotions in a positive way!
The Team Supercrew heroes, Benny the Brave, Keisha the Kind, Chloe the Calm, and Gen the Grit, bring these tools to children and families in a fun, engaging, and unexpected way. Beautiful, colorful, and detailed illustrations encourage connection and discussion between children, caregivers, and teachers.
There's a hero in all of us. Team Supercrew. Be Extraordinary.
