Supporting children as they build emotional awareness, communication skills, and kindness while working together.

In this episode of Mindful Moments with Miss Harrison, children explore the emotional ups and downs of teamwork. Working with others—whether at school, at home, or in clubs—can be exciting but sometimes challenging. Miss Harrison shares helpful strategies to manage frustration, solve disagreements, and become a stronger, more supportive teammate.

Through a relatable story about Leo, Ava, Sam and Jade, children see how listening, sharing ideas, and encouraging others leads to more successful group work—and better friendships too.
