Blakemere Class - 20.05.20

Date: 20th May 2020 @ 4:06pm

Good afternoon Blakemere,

What a beautiful day! I hope you enjoy spending some time in the glorious sunshine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This week is Mental Health Week and the key theme is kindness.

You could try some of the following activities to take participate in this week:

• Make and write a happiness card to say thank you or show someone you care.

 

• Help round the house – when the laundry is clean, take one item at a time from the dryer or washing line and take it to the room where it belongs and put it away.

 

• Design and make your own board game and play it with your family.

 

• Think about someone who might be lonely at this time and send happy mail to cheer them up. This could be a picture, a poem, a letter etc. and be sent in the post, emailed etc.

 

• Do some random acts of kindness in your home.

 

• Show some kindness to your postie/delivery people and leave a thank you note by your letter box.

 

• Start a happiness jar – write down at least one thing every day that has made you happy and pop it in the jar. That way you’ll have some positive memories to look back on at this strange time.
