Something to do WITH your child.
The problem is that helping your child understand their ADHD and the way their brain is working and not working, the reasons they struggle, is not something you can hand them a workbook and let them figure out on their own. It’s better to skip the “long and boring” parts and just do the activity with them than skip the entire book.Maybe it does work best for older kids, rather than younger, but whatever the age I would work through it with your kid. My son was in his early teens when we worked through the book a couple pages at a time. There was a lot of technical language so we took turns reading the paragraphs aloud and then he did the activity and we talked about it. I know he (and I) didn’t understand or retain everything but I felt like it was worth sifting through for whatever nuggets of wisdom we did retain.I see people criticizing this but he (an absolute hater of busywork and worksheets) really loved doing the workbook (WITH me). There are games in it that are definitely not intended to be played alone.At one point he said, and I quote, “This lady who wrote the book really understands me and how my brain works!” There is a sense of deep affection and compassion. The author mentions that she has two children with ADHD and there was never a feeling of contempt or judgment for the things someone with ADHD struggles with and feels stupid, shamed, and judged through their whole life because “this shouldn’t be so difficult for you”.I feel that reading this book and doing the activities together was a healing and bonding experience for my son and I. It built up his self-esteem and confidence and he learned a lot from the book.The “Emotions Bingo” game included in the book was a huge hit for both of us. You roll dice and then describe the last time you felt the emotion that matches the number.We both liked that game so much that we actually took it out of the book, and we regularly play it just for fun or use it on hard days to get past a difficult interaction or problem. It opens up a conversation about emotions in a way that my son is willing to participate in. I am not forcing him to tell me how he feels, it’s not pressured because it’s the game. And when I share an emotion he isn’t taking it personally because it’s just part of the game. The game creates a non-threatening way to share emotions that makes them less overwhelming to yourself and others.I thought this was a great activity book. We liked it so much that I bought the Anger Management for Kids book by the same author to do a couple pages a day with my son and he likes that too. It says ages 8-11 but I went ahead and got it anyway. I am not ashamed to admit that I, an adult in middle age, have found the simple format and explanations of what is going on in your brain with strong emotions like anger to be helpful and the exercises are something we are using every day.This year, as my son is older, we are reading ADHD 2.0 by Hallowell and Ratey together just a few pages at a time. But I feel like the ADHD Workbook for Kids was great for a kid’s first self-help book and I would recommend it for any kid with ADHD but only if DONE WITH A PARENT.

Great book
I purchased this for my 7 year old grandson. We work on it together- he is very receptive and has really enjoyed the activities in the book. I don’t read all the parts to him, just enough so he gets the idea. Great resource to help him understand ADHD

My 10 Year Old LOVES this book
I got this book for my daughter to use as a tool for her ADHD/ADD and Anxiety combined, particularly in school where she has the most issues. I must say it is beautifully illustrated, written and published. The language is easy to understand and my 5th grader had no problem navigating the book by herself. This is about the 3rd workbook I brought of the 100s I researched and it has by far been the best. I love the positive and empowering tone of the book. The activities engage the child, builds understanding, skills, self awareness and consciousness. I left in on kitchen counter and by the time I went to tell my daughter about it she had already picked it up, looked through it and was looking forward to working on it. We have done some pages together but she is able to self guide and direct herself. If she is in school and struggling she finds the section related to her current issue and either completes the pages or reviews them. It has helped her focus better just in that she wants to get her class work done so that she can use the free time to work on the Workbook. She has already asked for a second one to refill once she complete this one. To be honest as an adult the struggle with ADHD/ADD combined I almost want to get a copy for myself. I would recommend this book to anyone that ha a child with ADHD or ADD, especially if that child is struggling with the self image from it. This book will definitely empower them.

Self acceptance
Excellent workbook for my 9 year old daughter. The guided prompts and activities have sparked conversation as well as deepened our bond. When we get out the notebook; I can tell it gives her a place to let down her defenses and open up and be herself. It allows children who may not have the words to express themselves, to fill out the workbook, draw, make lists, check boxes about their feelings, dreams, strengths, & weaknesses. This in turn gives me a window into her heart and mind. Shes no longer angry or excessively down on herself but sees that God created her brain differently. It’s been a blessing for us and helped her on her journey of self love and acceptance.

Not for an 11 Year Old
First, I must say I do like this book. However, my son thought it was too “kidish”. I could see this working with 6-9 years old. Maybe 10, but no age past that unless they are delayed. It did have a great kid explanation for what ADHD is and how that makes you different but not in a bad way. It has SHORT quizes and such to assess your type of ADHD, what symptoms you have, activities to build self-esteem in the child, tips for learning how to do well in school and other areas of life. For a younger child, I would highly recommend this book.

As a parent it can be difficult sometimes in the day to day chaos to remember children with ADHD don‘t function the same as those without. With this book not only did my child begin to understand themselves but as a parent it also gave insight and served as a reminder that, yes there are differences, those differences can be managed so that they are not resulting in negativity.Additionally I would highly recommend the „anger management for kids“ workbook in this series. It is an absolute must especially as many children with ADHD tend to struggle in regulating this particular emotion.
