Holiday Calm Down Plan
Holiday Calm-Down Plan (Free Printable)
Give kids a simple, cozy way to handle big holiday feelings. Our Holiday Calm-Down Plan helps children spot their feelings, rate their “snowstorm,” and choose two calming tools (one for the body, one for breath/brain). It’s quick to teach, easy to use, and perfect for busy winter days.
Why it helps
Builds emotional awareness with kid-friendly icons
Teaches evidence-based regulation (movement + breathing + grounding)
Reduces meltdowns by making a clear plan before stress hits
Works at home, in classrooms, and in counseling sessions
What’s inside
Page 1: My Plan—identify a stressor, body clues, what helps, and trusted helpers
Page 2: Step-by-step calm-down menu (reindeer push-ups, snowman stretch, hot cocoa breaths, “twinkle-light” grounding, kind self-talk, and more)
How to use
Print and review when your child is calm (2 minutes).
Post on the fridge, desk, or calm corner.
During big feelings, point to the steps: Circle feeling → Check snow-meter → Pick 2 tools → 2-minute timer → Recheck.
Celebrate effort: “You used your calm plan—strong choice!”
Perfect for
Parents • Teachers • School counselors • Therapists • Holiday events and classrooms
