An Emotional Regulation Group for Children Ages 6–8
Give your child the tools to understand, express, and manage big emotions.
This four-week group uses art, play, movement, and age-appropriate activities to help children build emotional awareness and healthy coping skills in a fun and engaging environment. Through hands-on projects, guided discussions, and interactive learning, children will learn how to:
Recognize and name emotions
Understand what feelings are trying to tell us
Express emotions safely and confidently
Practice calming and coping skills they can use at home and school
Build social skills and strengthen connections with peers
While children learn and practice these skills together, parents will receive support and practical tools to reinforce growth at home.

Kids' Learning Outcomes:
Understand Different Emotions and Identify Them
Communicating and Expressing How We Feel
Regulating Ourselves and Coping
Connection and Family Communication
We will teach these objectives using art and psychoeducation. Interns will use aids like kid friendly handouts, psychoeducational picture books, drawing activities, coloring, and crafts. Interns will use resources such as a feelings wheel and nonverbal bodily cues. Discussion of feelings will also be encouraged during craft or project activities.
Parents' Learning Outcomes:
Open Communication with Kids
Creating a Safe Space and Open Door
Emotional Validation and Regulation
Continuing Skills at Home
Parents will have two 45-minute sessions at the end of sessions 3 and 4. During these sessions, parents will meet separately from their children to discuss what was learned in the group session and how to implement those learnings at home while providing a safe space for their children to express, communicate, and regulate their emotions. Parents will receive resources to aid in home implementation and to improve understanding and communication.
