Course overview
Lesson Overview

7.78 – Building a Calm-Down Box Together: A calm-down box is a hands-on emotional toolkit designed by both parent and child. It can hold sensory items like soft fabric, stress balls, or coloring tools. Building it together gives children ownership of their self-regulation process. Include comforting photos or affirmations that remind them of safety. Encourage using the box before frustration escalates, not after discipline. The goal is to normalize emotional recovery, not punishment. Rotate items periodically to keep the box engaging and personal. Parents can create their own version to model the habit of calming down intentionally. Over time, this box becomes a visual promise that feelings can be managed. It transforms emotional chaos into structured calm through choice and preparation.
