打造自己的「冷靜」套件！

Many children struggle with regulating their emotions and can easily become frustrated, agitated, or upset. Learning to self-regulate emotions is an important life skill, but children often require guidance to learn how to do this effectively. This interactive class allows children to learn various calming strategies while also creating four separate tools to develop a kit that can be used to cope with highly charged emotions. 

Each session will include an open-ended discussion about the emotions we feel and what causes those emotions. The teacher will guide learners to share calming strategies that they already use, and introduce alternative strategies as needed. Learners will spend a majority of the class time creating a calming tool for their kit (see below for specific activities). Towards the end of the class, the teacher will provide a brief demonstration on how to appropriately use the tool.

**Bonus: Learners will also receive a free set of calming strategy cards to include in their kits at the end of the course!**
