Relationships are the connections we have with the people around us that help us to feel loved, cared for and safe . There are many different types of relationships or connections that we can have; friendships, our family and carers, and our wider family members too. We need to develop relationship skills to help form and sustain meaningful relationships. This stormbreak helps us to think about the different emotions we can have and how our emotions can change throughout the day

Being able to depend on others is important in relationships
It is good to try something new with friends
It is important to know who you can go to for help

Now try this

Design an obstacle course that you can try with a friend who is blindfolded. How does it feel to be led? How does it feel to be the leader?

Children need to hear that it’s ok for relationships to change, that sometimes we can fall out but relationships can be repaired. How to help your children with relationships. Read our blog.
