'Joanna's books give you every answer to every question you have as a parent with practical methods to tackle every obstacle and connect with your child and help them flourish.' Madeleine Shaw

Parenting is for life - 7 days a week, 24 hours a day - and while it is one of the most rewarding experiences life can offer, it can also be frustrating when faced with challenging behaviour. But what if just 15 minutes of mindful playtime each day in you and your child's routine could change all that?

Play is the language of children. It is how they communicate. By rediscovering the joy of play as an adult, you can access a whole new way to understand and respond to your child's needs.

Created with busy parents in mind, psychotherapist and parenting expert Joanna Fortune has devised a simple but effective method to build quality playful time together at home, structured around 15-minute games that can be easily incorporated into your existing daily routine.

From newborns to the age of seven, her techniques are underpinned by research, neuroscience and therapeutic theories and are designed to address common behavioural issues you will meet as your child grows, including:

Anxiety

Lashing out

Whining

Boredom

Sibling rivalry

Demands for independence

15-Minute Parenting 0 - 7 Years contains everything your child needs to grow into a happy, confident and resilient adult.

15-Minute Parenting 8 - 12 Years: Stress-free strategies for nurturing your child's development, is also available now!
