Teachers, therapists and parents frequently find themselves ill-equipped to help children struggling with the difficult feelings brought on by situations like the COVID pandemic. The storytelling toolkit will enable children to see themselves as the hero of their own story, and to reinstate a sense of optimism in the face of the pandemic.
Whether it’s the anxiety of social isolation, the loss of routine or a breakdown in formal educational support, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected children in countless ways. Teachers, therapists and parents frequently find themselves ill-equipped to help children struggling with the difficult feelings that these situations, and others like them, give rise to.

This essential guide provides a therapeutic toolkit to enable children to tell their stories and to regain some control over their mental health and wellbeing. The toolkit introduces a therapeutic story template, alongside guided support and examples focusing on three therapeutic skill sets: active listening, reflection and handling questions. Designed for use with children both individually and in class groups, the storytelling toolkit will enable children to see themselves as the hero of their own story, and life, and to reinstate a sense of optimism and self-empowerment in the face of the pandemic challenge.

This resource provides a practical toolkit which can be used both inside and outside the classroom to help children to tell their lockdown stories. It will be valuable reading for teachers, SENCOs, therapists, mental health leads and parents.

Amanda Seyderhelm trains professionals and parents how to support grieving children and families through play and the creative arts. She is an experienced certified play therapist, working in private practice since 2016. Amanda was the creative arts lead of the Craft Station at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children Charity for two years, and is now a partner agency with Barnardo's on loss and bereavement. She also consults for theatre in education groups in the community, www.helpingchildrensmileagain.com.
