For parents/carers or staff:
The purpose of this resource is for children (ages 6 - 12) to learn skills and coping tools that can help them to self-regulate when there are challenges or difficult days.
There are a range of activities and exercises, including a ‘try and score’ section for children to identify what works well for them and what can support them.
You can support your child by encouraging them to try some of the suggested strategies within this resource. It is important to continue to practice the ones that they find most helpful.
There are instructions for each activity, scissors and glue may be required.
When printing these resources ensure that the settings are
‘print on both sides’ and ‘flip pages on short edge’
