Heroic Families Workbook: For First Responders and Their Families (Kids Hero Series)

Being a Helping Hero has its ups and downs! First Responders save, help, serve, and protect others! The Heroic Families Workbook is a supplement to the book: A Hero Lives in My Family: A Story for Kids of First Responders. The purpose of this workbook is for kids to understand their parent's job and the possible effects it can have on them. The goal of this workbook is for first responders and their kids to discuss various thoughts and feelings in relation to their work as helping heroes/emergency service providers. This can help in opening up the lines of communication and promote discussions around thoughts and feelings. It includes Activities and Tools for Heroes and their kids/families to do together. In addition, it incorporates exercises related to relevant coping strategies, promotion of resilience, positive thinking, work/life balance, and stress management.
