Holiday REST not Stress

December 5, 2011 — pefairy

                     Our DECEMBER MONTHLY CHALLENGE is on!!

This month we are focusing on  GREEN and RED Fruit and Vegetables!

(Make sure they cover half of your plate :-) )

We are also reinforcing ways for students and their families to DE-STRESS!!

  • The holidays can be just as stressful for children, as they are for adults!
  • Take extra time this month to draw, color, read more and just snuggle more.
  • Take long walks with your family and pets.

 

How do you handle the extra stress that comes with the holidays?
