Helping children stay steady when life feels busy or overwhelming

In this reflective and practical episode of Mindful Moments with Miss Harrison, children learn how to handle multiple emotions at once—like joy, worry, frustration, or excitement—without letting any single feeling take over. Through the story of Noah and his “spinning plates,” pupils are introduced to three clear steps that help them pause, prioritise, and respond with calm and clarity.

This episode offers a gentle but powerful approach to managing emotional overwhelm—equipping children with lifelong self-regulation strategies.

What’s Included:

Guided Audio Episode – A story-based session following Noah as he learns to name, sort, and steady his emotions. Transcript included for flexible and accessible teaching.

Pupil Workbook (UK and US English) – An 8-page printable journal with relatable reflection questions, scenario-based emotion balancing tasks, creative drawing prompts, and a mindful challenge.

Teacher Guide – A 12-page detailed teaching guide offering lesson structure, scaffolding strategies, vocabulary support, and adaptable discussion prompts.

Key Themes:

Feeling lots of emotions at once is normal

Balance comes from pausing, checking in, and choosing where to focus

Three steps: Check In, Prioritise, Take Action or Let Go

Building inner steadiness even in emotional or busy moments

Learning Outcomes:

Pupils identify multiple emotions in real-life contexts

Children practise organising and responding to emotions one at a time

Creative tasks support clarity, calm, and focus

Reflection builds insight, vocabulary, and resilience

This episode reminds children that they don’t need to feel just one thing at a time—and that with the right tools, they can stay balanced, steady, and in control, no matter how busy life becomes.
