I have been doing weekly SEL Sunday Reads for a couple months and this is likely my last one for a while. I wanted to include some around mindfulness.
Here are a few recommendations for Social Emotional
Learning Picture Books, specifically around the topic of mindfulness Some of
these books were suggested to me from teachers taking an SEL education course.
Enjoy!
