Today we had great fun running sessions for children to help their emotional intelligence.
Using creative discussions, first they created a ‘moving faces’ octopus to identify emotions, what they feel like and what might bring these on.
They then moved on to create their angry/calm octopus; this helps children become more aware of triggers for angry/sad feelings and the strategies they can use to calm down.
Well done to all of those that attended! North Kent Mind are running sessions for children and young people each school holiday for FREE, keep an eye out for our next ones and come along.
