My Project

Help us teach little ones how to self regulate their emotions in a safe area in our classroom.

These items will be used to help the young learners learn how to de-escalate when their emotions are high and learn the steps to de-escalating in a safe manner.

The beanbags will be used as a safe spot for children to sit in, and the various sensory items will be used to help them escalate and their attention on a calming activity. When young learners can regulate their emotions independently, they will grow up and become ready for harder, life challenges, and know how to properly handle themselves!
