This resource can be used in many different ways. Laminate the ‘face sheet’ and then laminate all the expression and vocabulary cards. Cut out the expression and vocabulary cards. Use a blob of bluetac to stick items onto the face. Add a whiteboard pen, a mirror and some playdough to extend the use of this resource.
All images have been drawn by myself.
This is a worry worm booklet and poster. Lots of children have worry worms. They are usually crocheted or knitted. Often there is a little poem attached. They are to help pupils let go of their worries. The pupil can talk to their worm and tell it all about their worries. The idea being that the worry worm will hold onto it,so the pupil doesn’t have to. They can let it go. To decide on which worries should be told to the worm it is helpful to look at the Worry tree
My idea for this resource was to have somewhere to put those worries. The worry worm booklet is useful for them to write those worries down. Once they have written or drawn their worry they can let it go. The types of worries that the pupil should be encouraged to write down are those worries not in their control. This might be a ‘What if?’ type worry.
There are some handy reminders each using ‘worry’ as a mnemonic.
Included in the pack:
A3 Poster in colour
Booklet in colour
Booklet in black and white
‘I am worried about ‘page with lines for writing
‘I am worried about’ page blank for drawing
Important information
This leaflet is meant to be used as part of ELSA Sessions or some other therapeutic session and shouldn’t just be given out to children without some input. They need to learn and understand about their worries and how to cope with being anxious by an adult. Please DO NOT just give these out without that important input. They are purely reminders for the pupil to take away.
It is your responsibility to decide whether the information in this leaflet will be helpful to your pupils.
Under our terms and conditions these leaflets must not be put onto school websites.
They are for printing and giving to pupils at the end of a session or you could use them as a basis for your sessions. You can work through each part with the pupil. You can practise some of the things on the leaflet such as 3 good things or gratitude.

This ‘Feelings First game’ will help children to learn lots about emotions and will be great fun too. Children will be making facial expressions, acting out body language and using their thinking skills. There is also an element of maths in the game because they need to be able to work out who has the highest number. Also lots of calculating to do at the end. Might be a good idea to have a calculator handy.
This is a Christmas compliments cup activity.
Pupils can send a cup to someone special to give them a compliment. You could also use the cup without the poem for pupils to write their own little poem or message. Just delete the text if want to do that. You could also use it to put on the front of a Christmas card. They could also collect compliments using a plain heart. You could make a different message. This would work well for a group circle time activity.
All the text is editable in PowerPoint. Great for our Welsh ELSAs to translate if they want to.
To edit just click on the text and type. This font has been embedded in the file.
Once you have edited the resource, save it and then save it again as a PDF file. You can now print your cups.
There are 7 different Christmas mindful backgrounds and 1 cup that is blank so pupils could decorate themselves. This one could mean that you could use this at any time of the year, not just Christmas. Pupils will enjoy the mindfulness of colouring their cups.
You will receive a PDF file if you just want to use it as it is and a PowerPoint file if you want to change the text.
The poem is my poem and copyright to me so please do not alter or change this in anyway. You can obviously write your own poem or message if you want to edit it.
Benefits of this activity:
Mindfulness and being absorbed in the present moment
Thinking of others
Giving to others
Thinking of nice things to say to others
Included in the Thankful Tree pack is *Giant tree with sky background *72 leaves with vocabulary *Banner *Black and white leaves for writing *Leaves in a variety of shapes and colours for display.
The tree is in PDF format and if you use Adobe to open it, then you can choose any size you like and piece together the pieces. I have included one in the Thankful Tree pack that is ready to print on A4 pieces.
This will promote a positive attitude and help increase happiness. Gratefulness or thankfulness is a fabulous habit to get into and helps to change that mindset.
The word affirm means to ‘state something that is true’. Affirmation cards have simple but positive messages that help to develop a person’s sense of self. When used regularly it is hoped that the positive message will be absorbed and a person will become more positive in their outlook in life. They will really begin to believe the statement that they are working on. The message needs to be realistic and very simple.
Although I have called these ‘ADULT’ they really are for anyone. My other cards have characters on them and these are character free.
All these cards begin with the words ‘I am’ and are very simple but achievable statements for all.
Included in the pack:
25 Affirmation cards – 4 to an A4 page
25 Affirmation cards – 2 to an A4 page

Express yourself Art Doodling is a series of prompts for drawing and some colouring too. Children get so much from drawing. It is a way of self expression and self exploration. Children relax when drawing and are much more open to talking about their feelings.
This booklet can be printed as A4 and stapled together or as A3 to give children more room for drawing. You could also just dip into the sheets and print the one you want to use. You could use the same sheet for the whole group or whole class of children. The booklet has purposely been created in black and white so as not to distract from the child’s drawings and of course to save printing costs.
There are 40 activities in the booklet with a Christmas/Winter theme.
I am sure children will get a lot out of the booklet and it will give you valuable information about their thoughts and feelings. It can also be used as a ready made lesson plan for one to one work or group work.
Please ensure you use ADOBE to open PDFs because this will give you great options for printing.
