Children’s Mental Health Week is taking place on 1-7 February 2021.
The theme of this year’s Children’s Mental Health Week is Express Yourself.
Expressing yourself is about finding ways to share feelings, thoughts, or ideas, through creativity. This could be through art, music, writing and poetry, dance and drama, photography and film, and doing activities that make you feel good.
We want to help children understand and appreciate that, just like our physical health, we all have mental health. We can also help them to recognise that we all respond to experiences with our emotions, feelings, thoughts and behaviours.
Below are some useful ideas to support your children at home.
