Moon Turtle Junior Mood Journal
Moon Turtle Junior has grown from the success of our first journal, Moon Turtle - A Mood Journal (a 21 day journal that aims to help with the managing of mental health related matters through identifying the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviour).
Moon Turtle Junior works a little differently. It has been designed for children ages 8 to 12 years to fill in either by themselves, or with an adult. The book includes fifteen diary spreads which are to be filled out following an instance where the child has experienced a negative emotion (getting upset, feeling embarrassed, or nervous, or left out - those kinda feels).
The diary section (made up of drawings and open-ended questions) encourages the child to reflect on how they felt, and how they can deal with these feelings when they arise in the future. The great thing about about Moon Turtle Junior, is that it helps to facilitate what some parents might find to be a difficult conversation - talking about feelings with a child is incredibly important in their emotional and mental well-being.
Following the diary entries, are a series of activities which aim to develop coping mechanisms, understanding and empathy for others, gratitude, mindfulness, and self-awareness.
