Today we have an activity for the whole family to take on together. Emotion Journaling! Why? "Encourage kids to keep an emotion journal, providing a safe space for them to express their feelings, thoughts, and experiences, helping them gain emotional insight and coping skills."
Here's how to start:
✏️ Provide a dedicated notebook for them to jot down their emotions. Make it special!
✏️Encourage regular entries, perhaps before bedtime or after challenging moments. Keep
it consistent and you will be more likely to keep it up.
✏️Teach them it’s okay to write without judgment or criticism.
✏️Decide times to review entries together to explore emotions and discuss healthier coping strategies.
