Emotional regulation is a huge challenge in primary schools and in the homes of children with SEND. Using the approachable and adorable 'feelings furballs', experienced SENCo Lynn How provides teachers and other childcare workers with a variety of activities to help children better regulate their emotions. The furballs cover a range of emotions and offer kids relatable characters through which to understand and express their feelings. They also compliment other popular regulation strategies like the 'zones of regulation'. With easy-to-read theory about emotional regulation and why it needs to be supported, you'll also learn how to apply these lessons both in the classroom and one-to-one.
Lynn has 24 years of primary teaching SLT and SENCo experience. She holds an MA in Education, NASENCO, and NPQH and specialises in wellbeing, SEND, children's mental health, leadership, and mentoring. Her popular wellbeing blog can be found at www.positiveyoungmind.com

The Feelings Furballs is a gem! It combines relatable, likeable characters with therapeutic, evidence-based activities that build emotional literacy and regulation. Lynn's approach normalizes all emotions and extends vocabulary through creative, engaging tasks.
