When Youβre Feeling Stressed:
Naming silly colors and Disney princess dress colors, etc, things you like: red firetruck, pink piggy, etc
Count backwards or count how many tiles, or things you see
List off different items that are a certain color in the room like: the green leaves in a tree picture, the green chair, the green plant, etc
Put on a pair of big headphones and just sit with them on. It helps muffle a bit of sound but also doesnβt make it extremely quiet
If you want sound try putting on a guided meditation maybe. I enjoy doing the Breathing Exercise guided meditation on the Inner Hour app. It helps me a lot.
Listen to something very upbeat like say⦠The Puppy Dog pals theme song or the theme to the beginning of Onegai My Melody maybe.
Sing as many songs from different Disney movies or different shows you love. It helps. The sillier the better. Make it fun
Be silly with your stuffie. Spin them, throw them, dance with them, boop their nose, etc.
Jump in place until you canβt jump anymore
Dance like youβve never danced before, act like a ballerina, leap around the room, slide along the floors in your socks and pretend youβre at the ball Cinderella attended
Try different hairstyles and see if thereβs one you really like or just a silly one
Go splash in puddles outside after itβs rained
Take a bubble bath and stay for awhile, maybe put on some relaxing music in the background or bring your favorite bath toys.
Take a bubble bath and act like a fishy while spitting out water
Make some bubble mix and go outside with a tennis racket or something that you can blow through to make tons of bubbles. Bubbles are fun!!!
Pop pop pop bubbles or maybe get some flavored bubbles and try to catch them.
Go outside, close your eyes and listen to all the sounds around you like birds chirping, the wind, maybe a car passing or your dog barking, etc
Keep this going. Help other littles who are stressed. I hope some of these help you feel better! Have a wonderful night!
