Feeling you nearby, holding your hand or having a cuddle can make them feel calm and secure. • Reassure them that the anxiety will pass, and they will be okay soon. Spend quality time with your child as a family. This will help divert their attention from all their worries. • Discuss about your child’s worries and scary thoughts and how to deal with them. Ask them how it feels inside their mind and body. It is very important to empathize with their experience, accept and validate their feelings. • Help your child learn about signs of anxiety so that they can recognize when they are feeling anxious. This way they will know when to ask for help or help themselves. Knowing this beforehand can make the ex- perience less overwhelming/ frightening. • You can explain about anxiety to your child through story telling- example: The Story of the Caveman • This story is useful to help your children understand where anxiety comes from and it can be adapted depending on the age of the child.

It also made us think more quickly, and be on the Each step should be decided in agreement with the child and the parent, and plenty of praise / alert for dangerous situations.
