The wristbands are to be cut out and stuck on a child’s wrist. Hopefully, each time they notice it during the day they will think about drinking some more water!
Also included is a colouring version for an extended activity.

Why not set up an invitation to play using these ‘Plaster Counting Puzzles’?
Select those appropriate for your children (1-10 available) and allow them to match the number with the corresponding number of plasters. Each pair has a different way of connecting as a puzzle for the children to match and so even if they haven’t learnt what the number looks like yet, but are beginning to say the numbers in order, this can be a fun way to introduce them to new challenges.
Once the puzzles are complete, why not line the numbers up in order and count together? If your children would enjoy a further challenge, leave out a number and see if they can spot which one is missing from the sequence.
Puzzles could also be used as a fine motor control/counting activity if left uncut. Children could be given an appropriate number for their learning and encouraged to place objects on the plasters, counting as they go.
In addition, each number is also written as a word. For our youngest children, this adds to learning about text in the environment and how it has meaning. Our oldest children may start to recognise the words and associate them with the numbers. This will be beneficial for when they begin to read and write these words in subsequent years as they will have something to build on.

Set of 20 cards (10 colours). Use appropriate number of cards for your children in an invitation to play or adult led activity.
These cards may be used in a number of ways. Placed facing up on a table, children can simply match up the pairs placing them next to each other or alternatively, they may want to collect them as they go.
A further challenge could be a memory and turn taking game of ‘Picking up Pairs’. The cards are made with a tab which can be folded before lamination in order to strengthen the final product. This also means that when turned over, the pattern on the front can not be seen.

This display/activity is intended to help the child/children identify their emotions and the experiences that trigger those emotions.
At the start of the day, one emotion is to be highlighted and discussed with the children. The children are then encouraged to tell someone if they think they experience that emotion during the day. The aim is for the children to become more introspective of their emotions, and more perceptive of the emotions of others.
As a group activity the children have the chance to learn from their peer’s experiences as well as their own.
Pack includes:
• Changeable display banner with space for different ‘Emotion of the day’ cards.
• Emotion of the day display cards for happy, sad, excited, worried, angry, confused, scared, surprised.
• Small A6 emotion cards to be placed around the setting as a reminder of the ‘Emotion of the day’.

We created this ‘Why is Teddy sad?’ pack in order for you to be able to explore with children how sometimes something may feel wrong inside when there are no obvious cuts, bruises, etc.
As well as investigating the feeling of ‘sadness’ by talking about what might cause us to feel sad and what it actually feels like, this pack could also be a doorway to talking about mental health. It also aids in the mindfulness practice of recognising emotions.
Keywords: feeling, feelings, emotions, emotion/emotional regulation/dysregulation/self-regulation, autism, autistic, mental health, wellness, colouring page/pages/sheet/sheets, empathy, role play, role-play, mindfulness

PLAY - CONNECT - TALK
On this poster are ideas for fun activities that could be undertaken 1:1 with a child in the hopes of fostering a connection that could lead to talk.
A relaxed, fun situation is conducive to conversation which, as well as developing talking skills, will provide an opportunity for the child to express their feelings about themselves and others.
We hope this helps!

The cards can be used as part of an input about emotions and feelings. The intention is that the cards would be held with the image facing the child/children and the prompts facing the adult. The activity should help the child/children think carefully about what each emotion feels like to them when they experience them. For example, when we are happy we may feel like smiling, dancing, laughing, etc. This process aids in the mindfulness practice of recognising emotions.

On this poster are ideas for mindfulness activities that could be undertaken 1:1 with a child or in a small group.
The aim is for the child to focus on one thing at a time and remain very much in the present moment - an important life skill.
This poster is designed as primarily a choosing prompt…perhaps a reminder of activities that have previously been undertaken. For more detailed descriptions for each activity, please see our ‘Mindfulness - Activity Cards’ pack.
