⚠ Safety · Stay nearby
Nothing to watch for.
Stop if:
- A page brings up something sad — stop, listen and finish another day
Easier
Two pages: happy and sad.
Harder
Add what helped on each page: “a hug helped”.
Only 5 minutes?
Make one page.
Why it matters: Putting feelings into pictures and words helps children handle them.
Clean-up: Crayons back in the box. Keep the book somewhere safe.
