Hands Are Not for Hitting

I found myself thinking of all the different things hands are for and came up with what I think are better than what's in the book.

I bought this book for my 2 1/2 year old son who has been having trouble keeping his hands to himself and learning how to control his frustrations. This book has become a favorite of his to read and teaches good behavior in a wonderful way. We even use the catch phrase "Hands are not for" and he replies with the "hitting", when we catch him in the act. We have found it helpful and a great book.

This is a great book, if you want your child to think of all kinds of great things you can do with your hands.but..If you are looking for a book to teach your child WHY you should not hit or anything about feeling and emotions involve in hitting than this is NOT the book for you.

My kids love this book.They've adopted the mantra "hands are not for hitting" & say it all the time.Really worked for us.We also have teeth are not for biting. Also a bit hit.Great books.Very happy.

My toddler son is a hitter. This book is helpful for teaching him that "Hands are not for hitting". I recommend it.

This book really helped me 18mth old

good price

I bought this book because my 2-year-old little girl was hitting me on occasion. We read it together, and she loved it right away. We read it a few times a day for several days, and I noticed a difference in her behavior from the get-go. If she hit or if she looked like she was going to, I would just tell her, "Hands are not for hitting" just like the book says. I would say her hitting decreased by well over 90% within a few days. Now, months later, she very seldom hits. When she does we pull this book out again and read it together. Anyone with a small child who hits should try this book.

Book quite battered & covered it sticky food. Not great
