CALM AND CONNECTED - EPISODE 127
In this episode, I am talking about coping skills tool kits that you can make at the Dollar Tree. I have previous similar episodes based on different stores such as Five Below, Target, Michael’s and Oriental Trading and one more general episode right back when I started this podcast. I talk about different styles of coping skills like relaxation, distraction, movement, sensory and processing.
The topics I cover in this episode are;
How coloring books can be relaxing OR a distraction
Building bricks as a calm down kit
Playing Word finds
Playing Uno Go!
The different games and activities you can play with large dice
Fidgets and how they can help on a sensory level
Why journaling is one of my favorite tools for kids
