Managing Big Emotions
Sometimes our big emotions get so big that we need to take a break. Understanding how to pause and work through big emotions can be hard for littles who are just learning about emotions themselves. This exercise is designed to help kids identify their emotions and teaches five finger breathing, a breathing exercise that kids (and grown ups!) can use when those big emotions get overwhelming and we need to take a minute to breathe.
