From Big Feelings to Brave Choices

Periwinkle Preschool, in collaboration with BrightPsych, conducted an emotional learning workshop titled From Big Feelings to Brave Choices for students aged 5 and 6 during school hours on 10 April 2026. The workshop was designed to support children in developing early emotional awareness and learning healthy ways to understand and manage their feelings within a safe and nurturing environment. Through engaging and age-appropriate activities, children explored basic emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, fear, surprise, and disgust, and learned to recognize body signals that arise when they begin to feel upset or angry.Children were also introduced to simple calming strategies, including deep breathing and muscle relaxation, followed by guided practice in basic problem-solving skills. By the end of the session, children were better equipped to regulate their emotions and make thoughtful, brave choices in everyday situations.
