The Beacon House Therapeutic and Trauma Team (located in the UK) has made a creative and trauma-informed Advent calendar for the holidays. True, there’s no chocolate…but who says you only get to have one Advent calendar? More chocolate and trauma-informed messages for everyone!
I believe that this organization has had a calendar like this before, and it looks super cool. As I am writing this on December 1st, I clicked on the “1” square and up popped something awesome to check out:
Each day, we can expect something uplifting, a little light and peace to add to short, dark, and sometimes chaotic days as we hurtle towards the New Year. I have read and am guessing that each day has something that we can share with kids, too, but as with all things, it’s probably best to preview it first.
When researching The Beacon House, I fell down quite the rabbit hole. They have an impressive and comprehensive list of resources for for children and adults. Subjects include developmental trauma, occupational therapy, attachment, inner world work, and more. There is also an amazing list of relevant websites to check out.
I’ll be taking advantage of this each day of this month up until Christmas Eve. Also, this reminds me to get an Advent calendar with really nice chocolate…or maybe more than one.
