Wellbeing Support for You and Your Child

Be Creative and Play

What we know: Just 7% of kids who regularly do creative activities like music or art report low well-being.
What you can do:
Nurture imagination through fun and expressive activities—storytelling, magic, crafts, poetry, or visits to local museums and galleries. Creativity helps keep their spark alive.

Keep Learning

What we know: Only 7% of kids who read for fun daily have low well-being.
What you can do:
Support curiosity by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing, carpentry, or model making. Learning isn’t just for school—it’s everywhere.

Be Active

What we know: Only 7% of children who are active most days have low well-being.
What you can do:
Encourage daily movement—walking, running, cycling, swimming, skipping. These improve fitness, focus, and mood. Group sports also boost confidence, teamwork, and friendships.

Take Notice

What we know: Just 5% of kids who enjoy and notice their surroundings daily have low well-being.
What you can do:
Help kids explore nature, cities, farms, forests, and beaches. Teach them to observe, reflect, and appreciate the world around them. This builds awareness and emotional resilience.

Final Thought:

Teach children to recognise and express their feelings in healthy ways. Valuing their thoughts and emotions builds self-worth and lays the foundation for long-term well-being.                                                                                                      * data from New Economics Foundation
