Flying Start @ Redruth Celebrate ‘World Mental Health Day’ By Exploring Emotions!
Flying Start @ Redruth enjoyed a busy day full of activities focusing on their feelings and emotions, for World Mental Health Day!
The children explored their emotions by using mirrors to try out making faces that they might make when they are feeling happy, sad, excited or angry, and to match the feelings to the expressions!
The nursery staff also held a stay and play session in the children’s centre, where they invited parents to enjoy some cake and coffee, and for an opportuning to ‘take 10’ to relax and discuss their emotional wellbeing.
Staff, parents and children all talked about the things that make them happy, and made an emotions collage! When talking about what makes us happy, even their youngest contributor joined in, using Makaton to sign ‘birds’!
Fantastic work thinking about everybody’s mental wellbeing, Flying Start @ Redruth!
