The goal of the activities is to significantly reduce stress reactions, anxiety, fear and sadness, which can interfere with a sense of security and impact academic performance and/or behavior. This is achieved by guiding children to do what they do best; playing, learning and creative problem-solving. The activities are geared towards developing an increase of hope, self-esteem, self-efficiency, daily functioning, and adaptational skills.
