Encourage your child come up with their own calming strategy with the Calming Caterpillar! Creating a calm sequence is a fun way to help children calm down fast when they need, by introducing quick and fun coping steps to complete in order and put little minds at ease.

About this resource:

Encourage children to create their own personalised step-by-step calming routine using our Calming Caterpillar Worksheet. This resource empowers children to develop their own coping strategies and identify steps for achieving calmness quickly.

By engaging in this activity, children gain a sense of control over their emotions and learn to recognise what works best for them when they need to calm down. The Calming Caterpillar Worksheet helps your children to develop vital regulation skills, promotes mindfulness, and enhances emotional well-being.

The Calming Caterpillar gives your child a personalised toolkit for managing stress and anxiety, making it beneficial for children who experience anxiety, regular meltdowns, or difficulties with emotional self-regulation.

By actively participating in this activity, children become active participants in their own well-being, developing a sense of empowerment and building resilience.
