The theme of this year’s Children’s Mental Health Week is Express Yourself.
Expressing yourself is about finding ways to share feelings, thoughts, or ideas, through creativity. It is about finding a way to show who you are, and how you see the world, that can help you feel good about yourself.

Children’s Mental Health Week begins on 1st February, and the theme this year is ‘express yourself’. This toolkit includes resources for children, staff and parents.

Thrive have also produced a guide for parents on creative expression at home. This guide includes lots of activity ideas to help children express themselves.

We understand that in these uncertain times, things can get a bit too much for children (and adults) and it can be difficult to maintain good mental wellbeing during isolation. These Thrive Well being toolkits are useful for giving you and your children some things to focus on.
