Great Website for Anxious Kiddos!

Happy Fall to Everyone at Wheelock!  I am dedicating my first blog post of the school year to one of the most helpful websites I have come across in a long time.




I'm frequently checking out and circling back to so many different resources and websites dedicated to supporting the emotional well being of children; and this website continues to impress me! 
So I consider this my PSA for all those parents who have anxious kiddos.  This website includes more formalized kid friendly videos for treatment, as well as a blog with user friendly ideas and articles.  

In the essence of not having to reinvent the wheel I have also included a link to their blog below.  One of their most recent posts on this blog is titled 50 Calm Down Ideas for Kids of All Ages

Calm Down Techniques for Kids

Link for the blog: 50 Calm Down Ideas

Some of my favorite ideas include: blow the candles, paint it out, and write a letter in the voice of your BFF.  Writing a letter in the voice of your BFF is just another great way to teach kids positive self talk!  Thank you for visiting my website and have a great day!
