Magic Spell Against Bad Words
Sometimes people say things that we don't like or that hurt us. What do you do when someone calls you a "dummy" or uses another bad word?
How it works
-
When someone calls you a "dummy" or uses another unfriendly word, take a deep breath. It gives you superpowers!
-
Imagine you have an invisible magic mirror around you that bounces all unfriendly words back. So the word doesn't hit you, it just bounces away!
-
Smile and say confidently: "I am special, no matter what you say!" or "I am awesome just the way I am!" These phrases remind you that you are wonderful and give you strength.
-
After saying your magic spell, think of something funny or beautiful. Maybe a joke you've heard or your favorite animal. It will instantly lift your mood!
-
Sometimes, when words bother us, it's good to talk to someone about it. It can be a friend, a parent, or a teacher! Talking about it often makes it feel lighter. And who knows? Maybe the person you talk to has great advice for you!
