Today in our nursery we celebrated World Mental Health Day by having a "feelings" circle time session. We talked about how all feelings are ok, and discussed what made us happy, sad, excited, worried, and scared. The children were fascinated by this topic and they all contributed so well to our discussions. The emotion puppets, and books were great assets to this activity. This goes to show that children are never too young to learn that it's okay not to be okay, and they all learned that there is always somebody there who they can talk to. We call these "safe adults." Have a look at the photos of them today, what a happy bunch they are! 😀
