Worry monsters – ‘North Kent Mind had great fun today at St Augustine’s Church, Gillingham, using creative activities to help children understand how to cope with worries. A worry monster is designed to help children talk about and reduce their worries and we helped the children create their own unique monster. The way this helps is by allowing children to write or draw their worry onto a piece of paper and then feed it to their worry monster. Once the monster has eaten it, the worry can then be discussed and shared with an adult, or it disappears completely. Take a look at the photos to see some of today’s creations!
