Thank you Ready Rocket Resources for adding yet another resource to our library to support kids and their regulation needs!
Loving @readyrocketresources books.
They are really resonating with the kids.
This is planet sigh and my year 2 friend had a brilliant idea of listening to the Bad Day song while he drew and shared his 'sigh' planet feelings experiences.
A fabulous resource for children, parents and therapists. The books encourage children (and adults) to learn about their body, emotions and tools they can use to support their regulation.
My son and I absolutely LOVE using the Charging Challenges in Ready Rocket Resources to calm and/or invigorate our bodies in a fun, quick and motivating way. Each challenge is so easy to do and because of this, I’m not daunted to give it a try - whether it’s at the start of the day, when we’re revving up our engines, or just before bed, when it’s time to calm down and get ready to sleep. We love the pictures that accompany each challenge and the text is written in a fun and simple way, which gives my son the confidence to read it himself. It makes him feel in charge of his emotions, which is just what we want. Thank you for creating a resource that is easy for parents and kids to use together, and independently. We love it! And we love how neuro-affirming it is! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
These Ready Rocket resources have been so helpful with my daughter who often finds identifying her emotions quite difficult. It’s helped her understand it’s ok to feel all emotions. The Charging Challenges book has been helpful for me and her support workers to quickly be able to find a strategy to help with certain situations.
She absolutely loves all things space so the planet Zonk theme is just brilliant too! Thanks Bella and Tash for this fresh take on emotional regulation that’s also neuro affirming! Highly recommend
I have been so stoked with these books to help me and my kids have a better understanding of our emotions. We really like the space references and comparing our body's energy to the speed of a rocket. We often end up on Planet Crash in our house so it's been helpful to have words to describe this and work through tricky times together. Would recommend!
I have been using The Galaxy Guide to Running my Rocket with my Year 2 class. The story has given the students a language to explain how they are feeling and strategies to regulate throughout the day. The children feel comfortable knowing that all emotions are okay and they have control of their responses. As a class, we have our favourite activities, but enjoy looking for new strategies from the many suggested in this resource.
It's such a fun and adventurous way to take students on a journey to a range of planets that represent all of the different emotions we feel. Part 2 consists of Charging Challenges with different ideas to support children with their emotional regulation. I highly recommend these books for not only teachers to use in the classroom but also for families as well!
Jazz really relates to the real concepts used in the story. We are able to practice the strategies together, so much that she initiates regulation strategies on her own.
Once we read it, my daughter talked a lot about the planets and her feelings so it was a really good conversation starter. My daughter identified really well with all the planets, and she loved the challenges on how to move between the planets. She could tell me examples of her experiences with each planet so it is very relatable to her.
What a beautifully curated resource. My clients' families have commented on how much their children look forward to sessions. The neuroaffirming approach is exactly what our field needs more of.
Our therapists regularly use Ready Rocket resources in sessions and have found them to be incredibly valuable with the children and families we support.
I am a Deputy at a primary education support centre… my daughters OT uses Ready Rockets and we love it!
I absolutely love your books! I have been using them in practice for some time now and have found them incredibly helpful.
🚀 We're doing Ready Rocket with Wize Therapy and loving it!
PS: I am obsessed with the books and am very inspired by you both.
I purchased your resources last year and absolutely love using them with my clients!
My son has been using these books with his OT and they are very useful.
I just wanted to email and say how much I have enjoyed reading through your resources. I really think they are going to bring some much to my practice.
I love these books and use them all the time with clients.
We have found "The Galaxy guide to running my rocket" an excellent tool for Toby to identify what planet he's at and how to get to where he wants to be. On the first week he was able to tell me he was in planet Zonk as he wasn't feeling well. The online workshop has also been a life saver for me, as I revisit the concepts every now and then, to support Toby regulating his emotions. It has also helped me to remember to regulate myself and look after myself to be able to support him too. Maria and Toby
Thank you, one of our therapists has left and we had been using her copy before. I'm also writing a book at the moment and doing a comparison of tools available to OTs to use for teaching kids regulation. Your Ready Rockets program is a great asset to the list. :)
So far the kids I have introduced the resources to have been responsive and benefiting. I like the program and visuals.
She has absolutely loved these resources since her OT introduced them. She was telling me all about the Deep Void in great detail tonight. So I figured it was time I got myself these resources for home too!
A friend from Aus recently sent me your books. I find them very helpful for my 6 year-old daughter.
absolutely brilliant! I love the resources :)
My son loves these books and reads them with his OT, they are so helpful.
