Emotion and movement
story series
About the resource
Emotion regulation involves recognising, managing and expressing emotions in adaptive ways. It allows children to learn, socialise and engage in daily activities. Some students may need extra support and time to learn emotion regulation skills. AllPlay Learn’s Emotion and movement story series teaches children that fun moving activities can be used to help express or regular their emotions in healthy ways. It is important to remember that moving is just one strategy that can be used to cope with emotions, and that this may not work for everyone.
