The theme of this year’s Children’s Mental Health Week is Express Yourself.
Expressing yourself is about finding ways to share feelings, thoughts, or ideas, through creativity, through art, music, writing and poetry, dance and drama, photography and film.
Free resources for children and young people are available to explore what it means to Express Yourself and can be easily adapted for use in school, for home-schooling, online lessons or independent learning.
Reading stories helps us to see things through other people’s eyes and helps us to develop empathy.
On the week of 18 May – empathy lab will be launching toolkits for schools which can be used on Empathy Day, 9 June, just email primary@empathylab.uk or secondary@empathylab.uk and write Toolkit in the subject to be sent a link for the toolkits.
Family activity packs full of ideas and downloadable resources to support home learning are available now – click here.
