Do any YSC have or give out kits to students with anxiety, stress, etc? I’m thinking a calm down tool kit for older students. Any ideas?

I had a calm down station last year with noddles cut for stress balls and stress balls, tennis balls, seek and find game, coloring sheets
This is one our students received to take home. It includes hair tie, container with cotton ball with peppermint oil, gum, crayons/ coloring sheet, pipe cleaner, fuzzy ball, rock. Our counselors done a google meet to explain the kit.
Me!!! Let me find my pictures & I’ll post
I collaborated with my school counselors. My office was able to give 50 to the high school & 50 to the middle school.
I don’t have any take home (yet) but I keep a vase full of pipe cleaners on a table in my office for kids to “play” with when they visit – whether talking or not. Gave out some color your own craft kits and plant your own flower kits during the summer as well
Tracy Jones Caldwell where did you find the bubble timers?
I have anxiety kits that include a stress ball, gum, a water bottle, and a list of techniques to reduce stress and stop a panic attack.
I’m at an elementary school and did this last year for students.
I just bought some stress balls, play doh, slime, and fidget spinners for 30 or so of my middle school students.
I made stress kits for each classroom.
Like Renee Wright Wooten, I collaborate w/ our Mental Health Practitioner and make a cool down toolkit for every classroom… stress balls, velcro, hand fidgets, feelings cards/dice, sand timer, pencil fidgets, cool down strategies cards, etc…
Thanks everyone!! This is exactly what I was looking for!
My principal makes calm bottles.
