The Early Years Coping Cards is a set of pictorial situation and coping response cards to engage young children aged 4 to 8 years old in discussing a variety of challenging situations and ways of coping with them. It can be used as a teaching tool to develop skills in building resilience, coping with difficult situations and responding constructively to challenges.
The cards are accompanied by a User’s Guide that includes some background information, conclusions from research and practical tips on using the cards.
This set of materials received a High Commendation at the Dept of Education & Early Childhood Development (DEECD) Early Years Awards 2010.
