Each year, we look forward to the months that bring our favorite holidays—Halloween 🎃, Thanksgiving 🦃, Christmas 🎄, and so many more.

We also recognize important awareness months throughout the year. We organize walks, share resources, educate our communities, wear symbolic colors, and start conversations about causes that matter.

September deserves that same energy.

September is National Su***de Prevention Month—a time to raise awareness, encourage meaningful conversations, check on the people we love, and remind others that they do not have to struggle in silence.

One powerful symbol associated with su***de prevention is the semicolon ( ; ). Grammatically semi-colons are often used to connect two separate but closely related independent clauses.

And sometimes, life is like that too.

💭 “I thought about giving up; then I realized I had so much more to look forward to.”

The semicolon serves as a reminder that your story did not have to end there. There is still more to be written. ✍🏽💜

So this September and months moving forward I challenge you to:
💙 check on your loved ones
💙 be kind to others

Some people fight battles that no one else can see. A simple phone call, text, hug, conversation, or act of kindness can mean more than you realize.

At Purpose In Play Counseling Services LLC, we care. 🥰

Your story is still being written; we’d love to hear it. 💜

Growing up, I think it was imperative at least 1 time in your life for you to ask your parent(s) for McDonald’s & them to respond “WE GOT FOOD AT HOME”.

Well just like food is at home, so is play. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Read along with me to find out how an inexpensive play-based intervention can be done in your own home using familiar objects.

You’ll need:
4 sheets of construction paper (red, yellow, blue, green)
1 deck of uno cards (sorted through without the black & white cards or the skip, reverse or draw color cards)
Finger puppets/figurines (optional)

How to play:
1. Read the rules and set your game area. We have 4 colors which often represent feelings.
❤️Red is for Anger or madness. Encourage child to show you their mad face as you do the same.
💛Yellow is for Happiness & Joy.
💙Blue is for sad.
💚Green can be for scared or disgust.
** Complete the faces after identifying each color until are 4 are introduced.**

💥 Your child has learned the words associated with common feelings they experience because feelings have names. Moving forward when you notice a change in their behaviors you can have them reflect back to uno and say which color they’re feeling.

2. Shuffle the deck of cards and face down. Each player will pull one card and match the card to its color or feeling until the place cards or full or until all cards are gone. For older kids, encourage them to share a time they felt __________ based on the color they’ve pulled)

💥Now you’ve not only tapped into the mental health side, you’re aiding with skills often learned in school (color recognition, number recognition, grouping objects based on similarities, comparing numbers for older kids [e.g., which number is larger, 6 or 9], or even drilling multiplication facts and the possibilities go on.

Moral of the story: play doesn’t have to cost and arm and a leg so today I encourage each of you, even if not this activity, to play with your child(ren).

Happy Saturday 👋🏽😊

📖Last week, we discovered that our bodies send us signals before school—maybe butterflies in our tummy, tight shoulders, or a racing heart.

But what happens next?

We don’t have to make those feelings disappear…
We just need to know what to do with them. 💛

Today’s page introduces simple coping skills that help children respond to those body signals in healthy ways. Deep breaths, movement, positive self-talk, calming tools, and taking small breaks are all skills that can help children feel safe, confident, and ready for the school day ahead.

Remember, coping skills aren’t just for hard days—they’re life skills that children can carry with them long after the first school bell rings.

Page 3 of our limited series ‘Twas the Week Before School is now live!

💡It’s OK to not be okay right? But you can only know you aren’t okay if you pay attention to the signs. Did you know: Our body often send us signals, sometimes in the form of little butterflies 🦋 other times may be a more aggressive headache 🤕.

Nonetheless page 3 explores how to help kids as parents and caregivers to identify those feelings and more by exploring some common signals our body sends.

How many times have you as an adult had to get to wake up or get in the car and blast a playlist or your favorite songs to declare a great day? What if kids themselves needed that same pick me up and just didn’t know how to communicate that need? Talk about the power of PLAY…therapy that is.

Take a proactive stance and create their hit playlist before school begins.

Bonus tip: talk about the emotions that arise with each song. 🎶

📖✨ And so the story begins…

Before the backpacks are packed and the school bells ring, let’s prepare our children’s hearts as well as their minds. 💛

Today’s page introduces bibliotherapy—using stories to help children understand their feelings, build confidence, and prepare for the exciting adventure of a new school year.

Because sometimes the most important school supply… is a good story. 📚

👇 A list of recommended books for every age group can be found in the comments. Most importantly remember, finishing the story isn’t the most important; the conversations together are.

What if preparing for school meant more than buying supplies?

As parents, we spend weeks checking off school supply lists, shopping for uniforms, and making sure everything is ready for a successful school year.

But what if the most important preparation isn’t something that fits inside a backpack?

This week, we’re inviting you to follow along with a special story series:

📚 ’Twas the Week Before School

Each day, we’ll reveal a new “page” filled with simple, play-based activities, practical parenting tips, and creative ways to help children build confidence, express emotions, and prepare for a successful school year—one page at a time.

No expensive materials.
No complicated plans.
Just intentional moments that can make a lasting difference.

So grab your family, turn on post notifications, and join us as we turn the pages together.

📖 The first page drops tomorrow…

Will your family be reading along? 💛

Have you checked everything off your list? ✏️🎒

As parents, we spend weeks preparing our children for a successful school year—registering for classes, shopping for supplies, buying uniforms, and finding the perfect pair of shoes.

But there’s one item that’s often overlooked…

🧠 Preparing our children’s emotional well-being.

Just like school supplies help children succeed academically, emotional skills help them succeed socially, behaviorally, and mentally. Confidence, emotional regulation, coping skills, and healthy communication can make all the difference during the school year.

At Purpose In Play Counseling Services, we believe counseling doesn’t have to begin after a crisis. Taking a proactive approach can help children build resilience, navigate challenges, and thrive both inside and outside the classroom.

This school year, don’t just prepare your child’s backpack—help prepare their heart and mind, too. 💙
