Lesson Overview

7.96 – Helping Kids Handle Big Feelings After School: The after-school window often brings emotional overflow from the day. Children may appear irritable, withdrawn, or overexcited. Create a routine that includes decompression time before homework or chores. Offer snacks, rest, or quiet space before asking questions. Avoid interpreting moodiness as disrespect; it’s often fatigue. Once calm, invite open dialogue about their day with curiosity, not interrogation. Parents can share their own emotional unwinding practices to model self-care. Structured reflection builds self-awareness and stress tolerance. Over time, this routine becomes emotional hygiene—a reset before reengaging with family life. Big feelings find safe release when parents respond with patience and understanding.
