SUMMARY:Play it Out – Helping Children Navigate Big Emotions
DESCRIPTION:Join our free\, interactive webinar. \n\n\n\nBook: https://PBPlayItOut231126.eventbrite.co.uk \n\n\n\nChildren don’t always need adults to fix their feelings; sometimes they need the time\, space and permission to play through them\, with sensitive adult support when needed. \n\n\n\nChildren experience BIG emotions\, but don’t always have the words or skills to understand\, express or manage them. Play provides a natural\, enjoyable and meaningful way for children to explore their feelings\, navigate challenges and develop the emotional skills they need to thrive. \n\n\n\nThis interactive webinar will explore the vital role of play in supporting school-aged children’s emotional regulation\, positive mental health and well-being. We will consider how play experiences can help children process emotions\, manage frustrations\, build confidence and develop resilience. \n\n\n\nThe session will also explore the important role of adults in creating safe\, supportive and playful environments where children feel empowered to express themselves\, take risks\, overcome challenges and develop their own coping strategies. \n\n\n\nWho should attend? \n\n\n\nSchool-age childcare staff and managers. \n\n\n\n\nBOOK NOW
