Make your own stress balls! All you need is play-d

Make your own stress balls! All you need is play-doh and balloons. Roll the play-doh into thin lines and push it into the balloon. Tie the balloon closed and you have a squishy play-doh stress ball. 💚

Confession: I am a fixer. It took me years to understand that some people do not want a solution, they just want you to LISTEN. This is hard for the fixer in me because it often means I have to bite my tongue and not attempt to get the person to see things in a positive light. Maybe they are not in a place where they can even hear that without shutting down and thinking you do not understand. It can come across as though you are not validating their feelings. Sometimes you just need to listen and let them know you are here for them. 💚.......................................................................⁣

Sensory play "find the letter" going on in my classroom AKA my living room 😉 Learning our ABCs and practicing our fine motor skills all with some rice and letters. It's fun but I warn you, it's messy 🤪🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

My neighborhood is going on a 🐻bear hunt! We are all putting bears in our windows so when families go on a walk or drive they can have fun spotting the bears. Count the bears you find, how many of each color, how many were big/small...so many ways to add learning to this. And it is all from a safe distance. 💙

The lesson I am learning from the situation with t

The lesson I am learning from the situation with the world right now is to be grateful for the small things in life. I hope I remember to be thankful that I can easily get toilet paper when I need it, or go to the store just because I feel like it. I will be grateful to be around others without the worry of getting sick. I will be grateful for Saturdays at our local eatery and grocery stores with full shelves. I will be grateful for my health and the health of my loved ones. 💚..............................................................⁣

Rainbow noodles 🌈 are a fun, easy, and yummy sensory activity to do at home. Ckeck out the other photos in the post to see a step by step how to guide. We had a blast shaking the dye in our bags and watching the noodles change color. Definately got some stress relief out by having fun and learning. Plus the noodles are so squishy. 😊

I know it is hard right now to adapt your entire job to teach online. This is why I have admired the teaching profession my entire life. Teachers persevere through the toughest challenges every day. I look forward to the day when this is all over, and many years from now when newbie teachers are talking about the stress of teaching we can say, "well let me tell you a story about Corona". Until then, keep pressing forward and trying to stay positive. ❤ ............................................... #teacher #teachersfollowteachers #teaching #teach #counselorsofinstagram #teachersofinstagram #counselorsfollowcounselors #schoolcounselor #schoolcounseling #counselor #counselorsofig #teachersofig #iteachtoo #counselormom #counselors #counseling #iteach2nd #teacherlife #iteach #teachertribe #teachers #teachersrock #teacherlove

Find a moment in your day to just sit and be still

Find a moment in your day to just sit and be still. Visualize a calm place. Visualize yourself there in that calm place. Breathe in and out and just be still. Think about one thing in your life that you have control over, this moment and your thoughts right now, could be one of them. Whatever is going on around you find that calm place in your mind...............................................................⁣

I am a huge Inside Out fan. 😀😰😡🤢😱 These books that go along with the movie are perfect for littles. They are short and to the point and the best part is the back of the box you can choose which emotion you are feeling at that time. Check out my stories ⬆ to see it more in detail. ⁣

Shine a light on mental health. According to Menta

Shine a light on mental health. According to Mental Health America, over 45 million Americans are experiencing a mental illness and 57% are receiving no treatment. Mental Illness is not something you can ignore or wish away. You have to address it just as you would a physical illness or it could get worse. It's not a phase, it's not even uncommon (45 million people! and that's just America). If you are struggling, reach out to someone who can help, find a therapist, talk to someone about it, advocate for your own well-being and mental health. Encourage others to do the same. ⁣
