Exams are close at hand for many children. Allowing time to relax and unwind during this busy period can be important. The Childline Calmzone has ideas on relaxing breathing, yoga videos and suggestions to help children express how they feel. Take a look at www.childline.org.uk/toolbox/calm-zone/ for more information.

The holidays are coming and it can be easy for children to get out of their normal routine. Whilst it's great to have more flexibility when school is out, this could affect your child's sleep and make it harder to get back into school life when term starts. Having a regular wake up and bedtime, including a wind down time before sleep and keeping up with usual bed time activities like bath time or reading stories for younger children can all help. If the routine does go completely then allow time to gradually get your child's day back on track. For more information on sleep for teenagers and children take a look at https://teensleephub.org.uk/ and https://thesleepcharity.org.uk/information-support/children/

What will it be like going back to school?
