Solid Advice From Kindergarten Kids

Next door to the Edmonton Valley Zoo “Grasslands” room that we are meeting in this week with MacEwan education leaders is a kindergarten class. It’s been fun to feel kid energy — putting boots on in the hall, playing tag at recess, seeing their thanksgiving drawings on the wall.

I appreciate their advice for “how to help our bodies if we are having big feelings.” So that we can get to work together.

1. Read a book.
2. Take a drink.
3. Draw a picture.
4. Take some deep breaths.
5. Eat a snack.
6. Play with a toy.

Appreciated.
