Day 3: Play your favourite song and enjoy dancing to it

Day 4: Do 1 minute of deep breathing. Take a deep breath in for four counts and then exhale for four counts.

Day 5: Let a friend or family member know what you like about them. Example: I really like your laugh, it makes me feel happy when I hear it.

Day 6: Plan your reward for completing this challenge. It’s good to set goals and to reward yourself for completing them. Maybe you want to watch your favourite film? A cuddle with Mum? A tasty hot chocolate?

Day 7: Do 30 star jumps. 10 in the morning, 10 at lunchtime and 10 in the evening.
