CELEBRATE DIVERSITY WITH ART. Many years ago, as a remedy for concerns, worry dolls were created by the indigenous people of Guatemala. As a solution to sleepless nights spent worrying, you could tell your concerns to your worry doll in order to sleep more peacefully. Worry dolls are made of wood and fabric and are popular keepsakes for children and adults.
EASY AND FUN. Wrap the colorful yarn around one of the wooden figures. Add hair, eyes, and a warm poncho. Then tell your doll your troubles!
SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL TOOL. Making a set of worry dolls and transferring troubles onto the doll may help children release worries and manage anxiety. The Worry Dolls are always good listeners and according to legend, take on the responsibility of the problem, allowing the troubled person to sleep peacefully. Sweet dreams!
