Aimed at 4-7 year olds, this activity is presented by Place2Be Ambassador and CBBC’s Art Ninja, Ricky Martin, and will help children to celebrate what they care about and what they feel connected to.

In this activity, children are encouraged to make and decorate a puzzle piece.

“Just like when puzzle pieces connect together to make one picture, when we feel connected to the things and those we care about, it might make us feel more confident, improve our mood and change the way we think about things.” Ricky Martin, Place2Be Ambassador
