Mindful Moments with Miss Harrison
S8 E4 Play It Out – Role-playing and acting to explore scenarios and emotions
Play It Out – Exploring Emotions Through Role-Play
Helping children use imagination, role-play and storytelling to express and understand their emotions.
In this imaginative episode of Mindful Moments with Miss Harrison, children explore how playing out emotions through acting and role-play can help them understand feelings in a safe, creative way. Whether pretending to be a superhero, chef, explorer or magical creature, play allows children to experience and explore a wide range of emotions—from pride and frustration to courage and kindness.
Through the story of Toby, who turns a disappointing race into a brave adventure through pretend play, children learn that it’s not always about winning—it’s about trying your best, helping others, and learning through experience.
What children will learn in this episode:
- How role-play can help express emotions safely and creatively
- Why imaginative play supports emotional awareness
- How to create characters and adventures based on real feelings
- Strategies for using pretend play to process tricky situations
Emotional Learning Tips from Miss Harrison:
- Pick a feeling: Choose an emotion you’ve felt recently—proud, nervous, frustrated, excited.
- Create a character: Pretend to be someone who can explore that feeling—a superhero, scientist, explorer, or magical creature.
- Act it out: Use toys, costumes, drawings or your imagination to create a story where your character learns something helpful about that emotion.
Play is a powerful emotional tool. It helps children explore real situations through the lens of creativity, building emotional confidence and problem-solving skills.
Mindful Moment Challenge:
This week, act out a short story based on how you felt today. It could be a tale of bravery, kindness, patience or pride. Use your imagination to discover new ways of understanding and managing your feelings.
