Worry & Coping Skills Worksheets

Worry and Coping Skills Resources for Children

Help children build simple language and practical tools for everyday worries with Edhed Learning visual resources and printable activities. The collection supports recognising worry, noticing body signals, using calming strategies and talking to a trusted adult when a concern feels too big to manage alone.

Worry is a normal emotion, and the aim is not to eliminate every anxious feeling. Use the visual material to help a child notice what worry feels like and identify one or two strategies that may help in the moment. Avoid forcing a child to disclose worries they are not ready to discuss; give choices and keep the activity supportive.

Connect coping skills to wider emotional learning

Browse Feelings & Emotional Awareness for emotion vocabulary, Confidence & Growth Mindset for flexible responses to challenge and Friendship & Communication when social situations are part of the worry. The full Social-Emotional Learning collection brings these topics together.

For intense, persistent or worsening distress, or when worry affects sleep, school, eating, relationships or safety, involve a trusted grown-up and seek appropriate professional support.
