"I learned how my feelings about myself can change and that it's normal." "We talked about the way we feel and think and how that changes how we can act towards ourselves. We can be kind to ourselves like we are kind to our friends."
Which kit components were the most impactful and why?
The self check in or 'charging station'. When we thought about our feelings as batteries and how this can get drained it was like an a-ha moment for some kids. We also talked about it in terms of 'how full is your cup'? We discussed ways we can recharge or help others to recharge as well.
