Signs of Anxiety in Children PDF

A handout for parents that describes how anxiety commonly shows up in children aged 7 to 12, in the body, in what they say and in what they do.Illustrated cards around a body outline cover aches and tummy troubles, a body on alert and changes in sleep, repeated what-if questions and reassurance seeking, and staying close, avoiding and big reactions. The handout makes clear that it is not a checklist or a diagnostic tool, and points parents to their GP or a psychologist if they are concerned.An A4 PDF handout, ready to print or share digitally.
