Hands are Not for Hitting

Hands are Not for Hitting

Children learn that violence is never okay, that they can manage their anger and other strong feelings, and that they're capable of positive, loving actions--like playing, making music, learning, counting, helping, taking care, and much more. Includes a special section for adults with activities and discussion starters.
