Tip 1: Help your child realize that we all have different feelings and that is okay! Everyone is different! It’s okay to have a variety of feelings!  We can be happy and sad at the same time!

Tip 2: Give your child options or choices on what they can do to feel better. Pre-teach coping skills during moments of calm. Build in practice opportunities all throughout the daily schedule!

Tip 3: Help your child realize what emotions they might be feeling. Are they anxious? What does that mean? What does it look like? What does it feel like?
