The Affirmation Web: A Believe in Yourself Adventure

I work with children and have been using "The Affirmation Web" as a way to introduce children to positive self-esteem building statements.Children love the simple, pure presentation of this difficult concept. Different animals show the child in a straight forward manner how to say something positive about themselves. The authors choice of animals is very effective in that she uses animals that are not known as "popular and beautiful". The child in the book is also illustrated so that any child can relate to the character.This really makes an impact on the children. I have tried affirmation books with beautiful, perfect characters and wordy text. The difference is that this book really speaks to the children. They connect with the challenges a bat might have in saying that he is "forgiving of himself and others". An opossum says" I am beautiful." A skunk says "I like myself." I have found that children struggling with self image gain hope and inspiration from these less than glamorous animals as they tell the world that contrary to what others may think......they believe in themselves

My child's self- esteem was slipping further downhill every day he was in school. I needed a way for him to counteract the negative feedback he received from his teachers and peers. The Affirmation Web showed us how to make positive statements to help his self-esteem grow and help create the positive results he wanted to see in himself. Now we use affirmations for any situation he needs to believe in himself, like himself or reach a new goal. What a life changing gift the simple technique in this book has been. I recommend this book, CD/audio book Indigo Dreams, and the newhard cover Affirmation Weaver all by same author. Any child will benefit!

I have always known that positive affirmations are one ingredient to creating healthly children. Its not until Lori Lite wrote The Affirmation Web that its easy to spell out for kids. This interactive book is a great blessing for children of all ages but especially the young ones, in that it teaches them how to say nice things to themselves and others. This alone builds up self confidence and empowers them to take control of their lives. The animals in the story remind my kids of themselves and their friends as they say affirmations to each other. This book compliments the other books that Lori LIte wrote and is a must have for all children.

My wish for my child is that she will have the confidence to face all of life's challenges. I have tried to instill in her a positive self-image. Now, after reading Lori Lite's book, she has learned another tool to help her reach her goals. Affirmations are a great way to stay focused and to give yourself the encouragement you need to be successful. I really appreciate sharing this technique with my daughter.

My young child really loved it. Very helpful for young children who are beginning their development of self awareness and the world around them. By using colors to relax, the author helps breakthrough to the stressed out child's inner self.
