Early Years Mental Health Awareness Week

7 February 2025 (by jdodds)

Today, in Early Years, we celebrated worlds mental health week. We talked about different emotions and which ones made us feel good and which ones didn’t. We spoke about how we can used our faces to tell others how we are feeling and how we can use this to see how others are feeling. We then spoke about different ways to help us feel better like talking to others, going outside or focussing on something. We then went on to do some yoga, we spoke about how it helped to make us feel calm and helped us to focus on our bodies and breathing. We then designed and made our own sensory bottles which we could take home. We spoke about how it might help to shake it fast when we are cross or how we could watch the parts float to help us calm down.
