Description

How do I feel about change?

When children are anticipating an upcoming transition or change in their lives, it’s a good idea to nudge them to think about the change, consider potential benefits and opportunities, as well as reflect on anything they might feel ‘wobbly’ about. Once we surface wobbles or worries with a loving parent or carer, we can work together to reduce them through planning and goal-setting. This activity will open up conversations about change and prompt children to work with you to address them proactively.

About the Parent Power Toolkit – Part 1: Laying the Foundations for the Admissions Journey

“These resources will give parents and carers confidence in preparing their children for the educational pathways that lie ahead. Through this first part of the Parent Power Toolkit, you’ll learn about how to create a positive and nurturing home learning environment, how to support your children in optimal ways throughout their transitions, and will understand how to keep them feeling good and calm. These are all things that are crucial in laying the groundwork for good mental health, wellbeing and academic thriving.” Dr Kathy Weston, Tooled Up Education
