Supporting children in building emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and resilience through reflection and mindful tools.

In the final episode of Series 6: Growing Together, Miss Harrison helps children reflect on all the social and emotional learning they’ve experienced. By imagining an "emotional toolbox" filled with practical strategies, children discover that they already have everything they need to navigate tricky feelings, build stronger relationships, and feel calm and confident—even on challenging days.
