C. StressLess Booklet: 9-12 E-Book

Description

The StressLess Booklet for ages 9-12 is a practical resource for parents, caregivers, and any caring adult, offering engaging activities and strategies to help children develop essential stress management skills and build emotional resilience. As kids navigate new experiences, school challenges, puberty, and decisions about friends and activities, this booklet equips adults with practical tools to support them in managing stress effectively.   

Designed to pick up and use, this booklet empowers adults to help children understand the nature of stress, its physical and emotional manifestations, and how to effectively communicate their experiences. Inside you’ll find activities like the Mood Tracker, which encourages children to recognize patterns in their feelings, understand the causes of their emotions, and learn ways to manage hard feelings by noticing how moods shift over time. This booklet also provides calming techniques like My Calming Jar, and activities such as yoga and stretching, fostering self-regulation through breathing, movement, and mindfulness.

With this resource, coaches, volunteers, parents, and any caring adult can help foster the self-awareness, communication skills, and practical techniques pre-teens need to confidently navigate their evolving world.
