Mindfully 'Monstering' Emotions
Mindfully 'Monstering' Emotions
Does it feel like your kiddo’s emotions run the entire family dynamics? What about your emotions? That’s what this digital social-emotional learning activity kit is all about. We’re going to talk about what you do when you have an emotion or behavior response that isn’t serving you, or that’s stopping you from growth.
We’ll also introduce the “3-C’s” needed to re-train our brain: Choosing Differently, Charting your Course and Being Consistent. You and your child will learn how to master that emotional state. Because when our kids can change their behavioral patterns and reframe neural network systems, they have the opportunity for growth and empowerment to know that they can do it with anything in their lives. This is a key to success.
SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING ACTIVITY KIT: Mindfully Monstering Emotions
Here’s what you’ll get:
Brain-splain: The bite-size overview of how emotions trigger our reactions and what we can do to slow down and respond mindfully instead of reacting. When you’re done reading, you’ll know how you can start supporting your child and what skills you’ll be working to build this month.
Inhale+Exhale: A mindful breathing activity you can do anytime with your family allows you to get in touch with how your body feels and teach you how to release any stress you may be holding.
Brain Boost: You'll help your child creatively put a visual to emotions so they can learn to name them. You'll be able to use these visuals over and over in provided ways to make naming emotions a regular activity.
Journals: Many households have multiple kids, and adult support is just as crucial as kid support, so we provide three sets of four weekly journals (little kid, big kid, adult/teen) to help your family grow and bond. In this pack, we'll help each of you start to notice how you feel, then decide if you want to feel that way. You'll be empowered to make choices to move out of or stay that in those feelings.
Let’s Talk About It: Tired of asking what your kids feel and think and getting the cold, shrugged shoulder? A set of 12 conversation starters based around emotions will help you get deeper than how was your day and help open the family communication.
Coaching Kids with the 3 C's: A game plan is essential for monstering emotions and coming together in consistency and connection. If there is a behavior or habit you’d like your child to change, coach them through the 3 C’s. This chart will show you how.
Videos: Two short, fun videos - one for you and one for the kids to help explain what’s happening in the brain when you're stressed and how you can make choices that benefit your mental and physical well-being.
FAQ’s
+ What age-group is this for?
Most of our printables are designed for preschool through elementary age kiddos, but you're not limited to that age-range, by any means. If you have children in multiple age groups, you're going to take what you learn and infuse it in your older kid's lives, too. Plus, if you have older children, the weekly journals will make a big impact on weaving social-emotional, mindful learning into your whole family.
+ My child has a diagnosis. Will this work for me?
100% yes. What we’re going to teach you is how to boost their brain in courage, kindness, respect, responsibility, gratitude, creativity, growth mindset and healthy lifestyle. No matter your child’s diagnosis or where their current mindset is, the life skills you’re going to teach them will impact their overall well-being, contentment and future success. Not only that, it will do the same for you, which will be pretty life-altering.
+ How much time will I need to devote each month?
The content and activities will not add more to your plate, it’s just going to make the moments you have more intentional. You’ll get a little nugget each month to focus on and tools and activities to deepen your knowledge on the topic. Over time, as you rewire your brain, you’ll see the changes you’ve made take root and flourish. We’re helping you change your mindset and giving you tools to help your kids change theirs.
+ How is the content delivered?
They will be instantly downloadable after you submit your order. You’ll also get an email with download options. You’ll find all the pdfs and a link to two fun (short!) learning videos - one for your kids and one for you. View and print any of the printable PDF’s that you’d like! Stick them in a binder and use them all year long.
+ Can I share the content I get with my friends?
We would love for you to share how much you love this program with your friends and family, but each purchase is licensed for one family and can only be used with the immediate family or caregiver. If your family is in a dual house situation, you can of course share it with both houses.
