It’s lockdown mid-winter and that means this time our kids will be spending even more time keeping warm indoors, trying again to make sense of the world around them.
The positive impact on a child’s mental health and wellbeing gained through writing down personal experiences is evident. Experts claim that through observation and reflection, children can better process feelings and help navigate change. Exploring and identifying emotions is cathartic, empowering and promotes emotional growth - not to mention boosts literacy skills along the way.
That’s why we’re inviting children to put pen to paper or digits to devices and write about this very unique time in their lives. The funny and happy, the silly and soppy, the sad and sentimental. Together we can walk through this tricky terrain!
