Medieval Minds is a game to help children learn about the fight, flight, or freeze response and to help them implement coping skills to manage strong emotions.  It opens the door to communication about triggers causing emotional meltdowns, making a plan to better cope in the future, and to become more aware of body signals and self-talk.  Children will have an opportunity to learn how to override this automatic response by taking actions to tell their body that they are safe. They will also be able to identify people who can offer support and help when they need it.
