Coping skills are tools that help kids regain emotional control when they’re feeling overwhelmed or upset. Simple techniques like deep breathing, counting to ten, or taking a break to go for a walk can help calm down strong feelings. Other skills, like talking to a friend or drawing in a journal, can provide a safe way to express emotions. By practicing these coping skills, kids can learn how to manage their feelings better, helping them feel more in control and ready to face challenges.
