Millions of children - already struggling with the effects of violence and armed conflict and now with the COVID-19 pandemic many more have stopped going to school. This situation sees children increasingly forced to deal with feelings of stress, fear and insecurity - feelings they often don’t know how to deal with.

That’s why we have adapted our activities to support children living with increased pressure in lockdown - through the TeamUp at Home activity book.

Stability and structure

The TeamUp movement and play activities offer an opportunity to release stress and tension in the body. This contributes to the well-being of children and teenagers and to the social connection between them. The TeamUp activities are linked to socio-emotional themes. Children and teenagers learn how to cope with anger, stress and conflict. They become aware of how their body feels. They learn to work together others, to express their feelings and compliment one another. These skills are useful in their daily life. TeamUp activities usually take place in groups facilitated by trained facilitators at a fixed time and fixed location. This helps to provide children and teenagers with a valuable sense of stability and structure.
