Relaxation For Children

Relaxation helps children improve their ability to cope with strong emotions, to respond positively to challenge and to maintain a natural, harmonious state. Learning to relax is a valuable life skill that can be acquired in childhood, helping children gain self-confidence, body awareness and healthy coping mechanisms that will stand them in good stead.

As well as clear directions for stretching, loosening, breathing and visualising exercises, Relaxation for Children includes:

• Notes for parents
• 21 masters for overhead transparencies
• Relaxation workbook for the child
• Suggestions for suitable music.

While written for teachers for use in classrooms, parents can also use this resource in the home.
