If your life as a parent of small children is anything like mine, you will be familiar with fussy toddlers, messy meal times and the frustration when yet another meal has been left untouched. This booklet supports you in reducing the stress around mealtimes in two ways. First, it looks at the meaning of food and messages you are sending out. Secondly it offers practical advice to plan, shop and cook delicious family meals without spending all day in the kitchen."

I find that the booklets are pretty nifty and easy to carry along.The information are easy to refer to as well.

For the "PocketRescue: Tension, Tears and Tantrums" booklet, it has helpful information on trying to understand the reasons for your child in having tantrums. It provides good tips on what we should do when such incidents occurs, how to stay calm and yet try to resolve the situation using the best ways possible.

For the "PocketRescue: Family Meals" booklet, it contains practical advice on how to shop and do meal planning for the family. It also comes with some recipes as well.
