Countdown to Spring Break, School Counseling Spring Activity Pack

Looking for something fun to use with drop-in students? This fun, spring-themed, counseling activity pack covers 20 different elementary school counseling topics! The interactive calendar works like an advent calendar but rather than anticipating Christmas, students will practice social-emotional skills while counting down the days to Spring Break.

How to use: When an individual student or small group comes into your office, have them open a day on the calendar to see which fun activity they get to do!

*Every school has a different schedule so you can start the countdown to fit your needs by skipping days or doubling activities on some days. Or, you can simply have students come in and pick a random activity.

This spring break countdown includes all of the spring-themed school counseling games and activities your program could need!
