Worry Jar Worksheets: give your child somewhere to put their worries

Worry can take up a lot of space in a child's mind. With these worksheets, your child writes each worry on a slip and puts it in the jar, so it is out of their head and down on paper. Looking back each week shows them that most worries shrink or pass, a lesson that stays with them for life.

Your worksheets will arrive in your inbox within a few minutes.
