A children's book designed to help kids build resilience and overcome feelings of uncertainty, frustration, anxiety and fear.

Developed with a team of experts in child development, neuroscience, play therapy and psychology, That's Not the Plan is part of the My Big Moments children's picture book series. It fully engages children in a story about real-life situations, weaving practical language, ideas and strategies throughout to help them gain valuable life skills.

Created by Hannah Davison, Flicka Williams and illustrator Marco Palmieri, this book was born from a desire to make the tricky job of parenting that little bit easier – providing credible tools to leave parents and caregivers better equipped to guide children through life's first milestones.

Key Points:

• Children learn resilient behaviours by seeing them modelled during difficult moments
• Play is a powerful way for kids to develop problem-solving skills and perseverance
• Free play in nature, led by the child, supports a healthy brain by releasing "happy hormones"
• Strong emotional connections with primary caregivers form the foundation of resilience
