What’s New This Week? – 7th October

Anger resources for children age 9+ and some seasonal mindful colouring. Take a look at what’s new below
This week we have some more fun emotional learning activities as we approach World Mental Health Day, as well as some new anger resources – plus activities for Diwali and Black History Month.
 
Emotions in the Ocean – A fun activity for World Mental Health Day to get children talking and thinking about different emotions. Can they think of a time they felt each emotion?
 
Before I Explode I Will… – Helping children to visualise their anger like a volcano is a great way of learning to spot internal signs – can they think of how they feel before they ‘explode?’ In this activity, help them to think of things that they can do when they feel the heat rising.
 
The Anger Iceberg – This is a popular, tried and tested method that helps us to realise what thoughts and feelings are leading to anger. Anger is much like an iceberg, on the surface we are only showing a small amount of what is really going on. Anger is often the accumulation of many different emotions. This activity encourages children to think about what is leading to their anger ‘beneath the surface’ – this can be thoughts, emotions or situations, then it asks them to think about how they show this on the outside.
 
Exploring My Anger – Helping children to understand their triggers and emotions is one small step in helping them control their anger. This worksheet helps them to reflect on emotional outbursts by thinking about what led to the anger and what they can do differently next time. Have them rate their anger on the anger thermometer, and track the level of each outburst.
 
Diwali Mindfulness – The business of celebrations is the perfect time to sit down and focus on your senses. This grounding activity can help children to feel calm when the excitement and festivities build up around them. Focusing on what they can see, hear, smell, touch and taste is a fun way to add some mindfulness to this year’s festival.
 
Diwali Colouring Sheets – We have created lots of fun, mindful colouring sheets for Diwali. Our Diwali colouring pages are a fun way for kids of all ages to develop creativity and focus, improve motor skills and feel calm during celebrations.
 
Black History Month Colouring Pages – October marks Black History Month, the annual commemoration of the history, achievements and contributions of black people in the UK. Our colouring pages are a mindful way to celebrate black history and culture and help children to feel inspired.
 
My Gratitude Tree – All the autumn feels with this feel-good activity! – Have your child write down one thing they are grateful for in each leaf. You may be surprised what they think of!
 
Emotions Word Search – Bring emotional learning into your every day with this mindful word search. Bonus points for acting out each emotion when they find it!
