Capable, Confident & Kind: Everyday Life Skills for Kids Ages 7-12

By Manny Balidio

Capable, Confident & Kind helps children ages 7-12 practice the everyday skills they need at home, at school, and with friends.

Through 28 short, illustrated chapters, young readers learn how to care for their bodies, manage daily routines, handle big feelings, communicate clearly, solve problems, make safer choices, and become people others can count on.

Each chapter includes a relatable real-life situation, straightforward guidance, a practical activity, support for grown-ups, and an easy-to-remember takeaway. Children can explore the book independently or work through it alongside a parent, caregiver, teacher, or counselor-one useful skill at a time.

Topics include healthy habits, organization, responsibility, emotional regulation, friendship, boundaries, problem-solving, decision-making, kindness, safety, and asking for help.

A practical resource for families, classrooms, homeschool programs, counselors, and anyone helping children become more capable, confident, and kind.
