Helping kids label, recognize, and externalize self-bullying thoughts through simple cartoon illustration. I love doing this with kids and having them draw and name their self bully character. I then ask them to be mindful of when this character makes an appearance in their thoughts (I’ve named him Judge Meano for this example but I’ve had kids name their characters Simon Cowell, Mr. Stinker, and other silly and creative names). By externalizing this negative thought process, we make it much easier for the child to talk about.
