Mission 2 - Build Your Calm Toolkit
We've been practising lots of calm tools together.
Now it's time to build your very own Calm Toolkit!
Everyone is different.
Your toolkit should be filled with the things that help your body feel calm.
Β
Step 1Β
Find Your Toolkit
Choose something to become your Calm Toolkit.
Maybe...
π§Ί A basket
π¦ A small box
π A little bag
πͺ£ A bucket
Decorate it with your own colours, drawings or stickers.
Print and colour the My Calm Toolkit label and stick it on.
Β
Step 2Β
Fill Your Toolkit
Think about the calm tools you enjoyed practising in Mission 1.
Now choose things that help your body.
Maybe...
π«§ Bubbles
π§Έ A favourite teddy
π¨ Colouring
π A favourite book
π΅ Music
π§© A puzzle
ποΈ Crayons
πͺ¨ A magic rock
π A soft blanket
πΏ Something that smells nice
π§ A water bottle
π A notebook
π Positive affirmation cards
β¨ Anything that helps your body feel calm and safe.
Remember...
Everyone's Calm Toolkit will look different.
Step 3
Try It Out
The next time Marcus pops up...
Pause...
Ask Eddie...
"What might help my body right now?"
Choose one thing from your Calm Toolkit.
Then notice...
β€οΈ How does my body feel now?
π Do I feel a little calmer?
π Would I choose this again?
Family Chat
Β
Show everyone your Calm Toolkit.
Ask:
β€οΈ Why did you choose those things?
π Which one helps the most?
π Would you like to add anything else?
Grown-ups can make Calm Toolkits too!

"I don't need to remember everything.
That's why I have my Calm Toolkit.
The more I practise...
the more I discover what helps my body."
