(039) My Self Care Playlist: A Music Inspired SEL Activity

Music can be more than entertainment. It can help kids relax, build confidence, process emotions, and recharge.

In this interactive worksheet, kids create a personalized self care playlist by choosing songs that support different moods and moments. They also have the chance to write their own self care song, describe its message, and design an album cover, making this a creative way to explore healthy coping skills through music.

This activity encourages self awareness, emotional expression, and positive self care while giving kids the opportunity to connect with music they already enjoy.
