January 8, 2021 - Michigan State University Extension

In this activity, you will teach the child a technique for feeling calm by doing a head-to-toe body scan. A body
scan is like a check-in with your body to see if you are holding tension in your muscles. Paying attention and
taking slow, deep breaths can help you lessen any stress the child might be feeling and bring on feelings of calm.
