February marks Children’s Mental Health Month, a time to shine a light on the unique challenges children face and explore meaningful ways to support their emotional well-being. At With Kids, we understand that in today’s fast-paced, digital-first world, children are navigating pressures that can leave lasting impacts on their mental health—from academic stress and social media comparison to struggles with socialisation and family stress.
February marks Children’s Mental Health Month Throughout this month, we’ll be highlighting the transformative power of play therapy as a tool to address these challenges, offering insight into how positive play can foster resilience, build confidence, and enhance emotional health. Through a series of articles, we will dive into key issues experienced by children, such as anxiety, digital dependency, and social struggles, while providing practical tools and techniques for parents, teachers, and caregivers to create supportive environments where children can thrive.
