WorryWoo Twitch The Monster of Frustration Kit

Emotional Focus: Frustration & Anger

Suitable for early years & primary settings

Big feelings can be hard to manage especially when things don’t go to plan. The WorryWoo Twitch, The Monster of Frustration Kit provides children with a supportive, relatable way to understand and express frustration and anger through story, humour and emotional connection.

In the picture book The Very Frustrated Monster, children meet Twitch, who tries very hard to get everything right but quickly becomes upset when things don’t go his way. If you’ve ever had a day where everything seems to go wrong, Twitch’s story will feel instantly familiar. The playful narrative and gentle humour help put life’s little setbacks into perspective, while opening the door to meaningful emotional discussions.

Paired with the Twitch character, this kit helps children “see” frustration as something separate from themselves making it easier to talk about, understand and manage. The WorryWoo – Twitch, The Monster of Frustration Kit helps children feel understood, supported and empowered turning moments of frustration into opportunities for learning, growth and emotional resilience. Ages 3yrs+.
