This collection of therapeutic activities is designed to help children safely explore emotions, build emotional awareness, and find reassurance during times of stress or family transitions. Through creative expression, visual metaphors, and guided reflection, children are supported in understanding their feelings, releasing self-blame, and strengthening a sense of safety and connection.
My Feelings House – Drawing Activity
Children draw a house with different rooms representing emotions such as anger, worry, hope, or confusion. By exploring what each room holds, children externalize feelings and learn to identify where emotions “live” in their body and mind. This activity supports emotional literacy, curiosity, and self-expression in a gentle, non-threatening way.
Two Homes, One Heart – Connection Activity
Using two homes and a shared heart, children visually explore the idea that love remains connected even when parents live in separate households. This activity reinforces emotional stability, attachment, and reassurance, helping children feel secure across different environments.
Divorce Doesn’t Mean… – Reframing Activity
Through guided sentence starters, children address common misconceptions and self-blame related to divorce. This activity helps children replace fear-based beliefs with reassuring truths, reinforcing that divorce is not their fault and that love and support remain present.
