Digital Coping Skills for Kids Activity Books: Marvelous Movement

When children have big emotions, sometimes their body gets full of energy. When they feel that energy in their body, it makes sense to find some safe ways to get that energy out! This activity book is all about healthy ways to help kids move and cope with big feelings. Moe and Mona, the two kids you see in the book, like to use movement to feel better. In this book, there are thirty movement coping skills for kids to try in real life! There are some ideas that are small body movements, like squeezing dough, or flexing and pointing your feet, or playing with a fidget. Other ideas use your whole body, like jumping jacks,dancing, or riding a scooter. There are some strategies that work outside, some that work inside, and some that work in both locations. To help kids practice the skills, there are three ways to explore each of them further: Coloring: The coloring pages show the coping kids and coping critters using coping skills.
