Students experience stress and worry just like adults, and they need support so they can find healthy ways to cope with struggles they may experience. By donating to our project, you will help students create their own calming bottle with their school counselor. Calming bottles help students focus their minds and relax when they are worried, upset or stressed. With each bottle, students will add a variety of objects: a paperclip, a button, beads, a die, a marble, craft pom poms, and more. Once the bottles are completed, students will be taught when and how to use them. When stressed, worried, or upset, students can calm themselves by looking for each item in their calming bottle. This activity will teach them how to refocus their attention so they can regulate their emotions.
