Delia Dolphin has something important to share...

Sometimes people don't know how we're feeling...

because they can't hear the words inside our minds.

Delia smiles and says...

"Your voice helps other people understand you."

 

Step 1

Name Your Feeling

Look at each picture.

What might you say?

💬 I feel worried.

💬 I feel excited.

💬 I feel tired.

💬 I feel sad.

💬 I feel happy.

💬 I feel calm.

💬 I feel angry.

There are no right or wrong feelings.

Every feeling is welcome.

 

Step 2

Tell Someone What You Need

Sometimes we don't just need to say how we feel...

we need to tell people what would help.

Maybe...

💙 "Can you help me?"

💚 "Can I have a hug?"

💛 "Can I have some quiet time?"

🧡 "Can you play with me?"

💜 "Please stop."

❤️ "I need a break."

Delia reminds us...

People can't always guess what we need.

 

Step 3

Delia's Silly Voice Challenge

Delia giggles...

"Sometimes it's easier to practise brave words in a silly voice!"

Can you say these in...

🐭 a tiny mouse voice?

🦁 a giant lion voice?

🤖 a robot voice?

👵 an old granny voice?

👶 a baby voice?

👽 an alien voice?

Practise saying...

💙 "I feel happy."

💚 "I feel worried."

💛 "I need help."

🧡 "Can I join in?"

❤️ "Please stop."

💜 "Thank you."

Then try saying them in your own voice.

 

Delia smiles...

"Your voice is magical - whatever it sounds like!"
