Coping-Skills Coloring Cards

How to use it

1. Color or decorate any cards that interest you.
2. Choose one card you might like to try, change, or save for later.
3. You may mark a card as not for me and choose another option.

Reflection prompts

• Which options feel familiar, new, or not useful for you?
• When and where could one option be available?
• Who could help you try it safely?

Facilitator guidance

Introduce skills as experiments and choices, not guaranteed solutions. Check that each selected action is safe, available, and appropriate for the setting.

Adaptations & accessibility

• Offer a small set organized by movement, sensory, social, creative, or quiet options.
• Use picture-only cards with spoken or AAC choices.
• Let the child design a new card.

Review considerations

Standard licensed-clinician review required before use.
