You: "How was your day?" Your child: "Fine." As a parent, you want to know what is going on in your childs life, how school and friendships are going, if theyre feeling okay. As a kid you want to tell your parent whats going on, but it can be hard to find the words. This book is brilliant because it makes finding those words easy, and you discover incredible stuff about each other. How exactly do you make it happen? This accessible guide answers the million-dollar question by steering you, step by step through carefully supported and structured conversational platforms that encourage connection and strengthen relationship bonds. Written by two top clinical psychologists who have worked with families over many years they have, uniquely, designed it for you to read and experience, together. Inside this book you will find a range of fun, illustrated child-friendly conversation activities, organised around four key themes: who are you? how are you? what helps? what gets in the way? There is powerful evidence that building good parent-child communication skills improves emotional wellbeing, physical health, academic and employment success. It helps set up a trusting relationship so you can navigate adolescence and later life successfully. Its important to start early because it takes time to learn skills.

Jane and Bettina are clinical psychologists and academics with a specialist interest in neuropsychology. They have over 20 years experience working at Great Ormond Street Hospital and University College London with children, young people, families, school staff and delivering practical evidence-based training to parents and professionals.

An innovative, accessible and cutting-edge resource from top psychologists, for parents and children aged 6+ to use together, a place to have conversations, to build strong relationships and wellbeing.
