This was a great way to start a discussion about things kids worry about. We also did a Go Noodle that is about banishing thoughts we don't want. The GoNoodle didn't have ideas about how to do that. It just said to do it but this book gives the suggestion to fill your mind with good thoughts to get rid of the bad thoughts.
Goodreads says:
Have you ever had an unwelcome thought that you just couldn't get rid of, no matter how hard you tried to push it away? In Catching Thoughts, a girl is plagued by an unwanted thought. No matter what she does--ignore it, yell at it, cry about it--the thought won't go away. Frustrated and discouraged, she finally looks that bad thought in the face and says, Hello. At last, she is able to notice other more beautiful, positive thoughts all around her. As she catches hold of new thoughts, the girl discovers she can fill her mind with whatever she chooses.
