Anxiety Prevention Program
“Fun Friends”
This is a play-based program that teaches children essential
resilience skills including:
How to relax and self soothe; How to regulate emotions; How
to understand emotions in self and others; How to be kind and
empathetic; Social and emotional skills; How to make friends
and share; How to be brave and try new things; How to build a
strong sense of self and self-esteem; How to deal with conflict;
Positive coping strategies and How to change negative “red
thoughts” into positive “green thoughts”.
The importance of a research based resilience program cannot
be underestimated, with research showing as many as 20% of
preschool children in the general population exhibit moderate to
clinical levels of emotional and behavioural disturbance.
Fortunately, the rapid development of preschool children allows
for effective treatment aimed at both prevention and intervention.
Children will have great fun and join in lots of activities promoting
the development of social and emotional skills.
For children in grades one and two.
