With the increased focus on providing for children's mental health, there is ever more demand for resources that will support educational settings to help children develop the skills needed to cope in today's world. This book presents nursery and school staff with a simple, jargon-free guide which offers a creative approach to supporting young children to develop their social and emotional skills throughout the academic year.
Developing Children's Resilience and Mental Health is a comprehensive programme made up of fun, practical activities in a 32-session format. Each session contains a warm-up, main learning activity, and relaxation exercise, focusing on four REAL core themes of development:
Relationships
Emotions
Awareness
Learning
Each session can be carried out on a weekly basis to build a firm foundation for children's development and to help reduce issues related to social, emotional and behavioural difficulties. With almost 100 activities in total and session-related homework tasks, this book is a vital resource for school staff and educational practitioners.
