Coping Skills Boxes Calm Down Boxes

Coping skill toolboxes are used to help children calm down when they get upset. I enjoy including playdough, an I Spy bottle, a notebook with a pencil or crayons (depending on age), a stress ball, and some handouts on coping.
These are especially helpful for children with anger and anxiety. They are also useful for children with autism or other sensory or processing needs.
Be sure to check out our other videos explaining what is included and why it is necessary to help kids cope.
