Includes a Note to Parents.Do you have a feeling that''s visiting today? Can you open your door and invite it to play?Visiting Feelings harnesses a young child amp rsquo s innate capacity to fully experience the present moment. Rather than labeling or defining specific emotions and feelings, Visiting Feelings invites children to sense, explore, and befriend any feeling with acceptance and equanimity.
