Wellbeing You may have times when you are feelingworried or angry. It is OK to feel like this, we just need to learn ways to help to deal with these emotions. One strategy which can help you to feel calmer is the use of a breathing wand; this is also a fun craft activity to do too! Look at the attached sheet and follow the instructions to make a Breathing wand

• Once you have made your breathing wand, move to a quiet area and put on a piece of calming music.

• Take long, slow breaths with the breathing wand in front of your face to make your ribbons dance.

• Challenge members of your household to see who can take the longest breath.

• Once the music has finished, share how they are feeling with a family member or friend.

• When you are experiencing uncomfortable emotions, you can use your breathing wand to help you to feel calmer.

On the planet Vuv there are two sorts of creatures. The Zios have 3 legs and the Zepts have 7 legs.
