Subjects/Skills: Emotional Development
Materials Needed:
Sidewalk chalk
Spray bottle full of water
Directions:
Talk about why Ord was afraid to go into the funhouse. Ask your child to tell you something that he is afraid of. Talk about how he feels when he things of that thing.
Go outdoors and invite your child to draw a picture of the thing he is afraid of.
When he's finished creating his drawing, let him know that he can chase the scary thing with "FearAway." Give him the spray bottle, and let him spray the chalk with water until the picture has disappeared.
Let your child know that the "FearAway" works on more than just pictures. For example, if he's afraid of monsters or other creatures that might be in the dark, he can keep the "FearAway" bottle next to his bed for protection. (You can just leave an empty spray bottle instead of one filled with water and tell your child that you've found a new, invisible brand of FearAway if you're worried about your child damaging anything with the water.)
