Help children and young people to de-stress and relax through colouring, doodling and drawing. Everybody has worries and fears, and if we don't talk about them we can sometimes feel alone and our worries can grow and get bigger. These charming images and guided activities, narrated by a friendly Worry Worm, will open up new areas for discussion in a fun format and enable young people to talk about their worries and fears while benefitting from the stress-relieving effects that increased focus and creativity can provide. The activities explore common sources of worries, the different feelings children have when they are worried and how to distinguish between things that it is OK to worry about and those times when our worries can get too big. The fun worksheets then suggest ways that children can get rid of their Worry Monsters by talking about them, sharing them or by doing other activities or thinking about things they are good at. There are no rules or complicated step-by-step instructions -simply colour, scribble or draw to your hearts' content. Includes a checklist of tips for children on managing worries and notes for guidance for parents and carers.
