The Five Ways to Christmas Wellbeing, with apologies to the authors.

Picture
CONNECT the five sets of Christmas solar lights up together using little twisty ties and sling them out the bedroom window so they reach the big pine tree. Climb the pine tree using the youngest of your children to steady the ladder and twine the lights around the branches whilst yelling “do not climb the ladder!!”

GIVE
the lights a trial run...before you climb the big pine tree...


TAKE NOTICE
of the wee writing on the label attached to the cord before you climb the big pine tree and arrange the “indoor only “ lights so precisely


KEEP LEARNING
about how to get down the big pine tree when the ladder has gone as your youngest has redeployed it as a “magic beanstalk to the clouds”


BE ACTIVE
in taking revenge on the people who wrote the wee writing, the person who knew only two bulbs worked when they took the lights down last year, whoever thought a giant living on a cloud was a reasonable idea and the Ning Nong who planted the **** great pine tree in the first place!!


Merry Christmas everyone, may the gods of Christmas present(s) be sweet to you and yours.

    We all worry and feel anxiety at times in our lives.  Anxiety can impact on children and their families in many ways. The Worry Bug Project seeks to support parents and teachers to recognise and address mild to moderate anxiety.
