Bounce Back Program for Kindergarten to Grade 3
​
The Bounce Back Program has been condensed to be delivered in a 6-week on-line group program for elementary aged children who may need some extra help learning to self-regulate their stress and anxiety levels. In this group we’re going to work together to learn some cognitive behaviour strategies using picture books, drawings, cartoons, and even treats! Each time we meet we’re going to learn new things that we can try together and practice throughout your week. We will work together as a team, learning new ways to feel, think, feel better and Bounce Back!
All Participants will receive a care package that includes:
-
Parent letter – introduction to the group
-
Worksheets and Markers for session activities
-
Fidgets to help with regulation
-
Picture book about the amygdala and regulation “Amy G. Dala and the Mind Full of School” (written by facilitator, Theresa McKay)
