Following on from yesterday\u2019s advice on how to look after each other during Lockdown I\u2019ll keep providing further supports from the Glasgow Times article which I found so informative. Today\u2019s focus is<\/p>\n
Acknowledgement:<\/p>\n
Children can find it difficult to recognise or share what their feelings are. It is important to talk about these with your child and help them to identify what they may be feeling and why. When doing this it is important to get your child to name their feelings. You can help with this by identifying the feeling for them if required. This can be done by saying: I can see you are feeling\u2026.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
When you have helped them to identify their feeling you can work together to develop ways to make them feel better if their feeling is one of fear, or worry or anxiousness.<\/p>\n
Maybe as a family you are finding calmness at this time\u00a0 and that is important to recognise and spread too.<\/p>\n
Some questions suggested that you could ask your child included:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What makes you feel calm?<\/p>\n
How can you continue to keep in touch with friends and family at the moment?<\/p>\n
Can you think of anything fun we can do at home today?<\/p>\n
What is something you could you do for someone else today?<\/p>\n
What have you enjoyed about today?<\/p>\n
What made you feel proud today?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I will further support this on our positive thought for the week on Friday and also on Thursday\u2019s mindfulness self-regulation focus.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Have a great day,<\/p>\n
