Squish and squeeze (Emotional Regulation With Play Sense Dough)

**VERSE** Sometimes I feel mad, Sometimes I feel sad, Sometimes I feel wiggly And a little bit bad. Sometimes my feelings Feel big as can be, That's when my dough can help Take care of me. Hold your dough nice and tight, Give it a squeeze with all your might. Squeeze, squeeze, one, two, three, Take a slow breath here with me. **CHORUS** Squish and squeeze, Squish and squeeze, Slow it down and find your breeze. Big feelings come, Big feelings go, Squish them gently in your dough. Squish and squeeze, Squish and squeeze, Breathe in slow and feel at ease. My body's calm, My mind can see, The best version of me. **BRIDGE** Pat, pat, pat it flat, Pat away this and that. Tap, tap, nice and slow, Watch your little playdough go. In goes air, Out it goes, Like the wind that softly blows. My feelings matter, Yes they do, And I know just what to do. **FINAL CHORUS** Squish and squeeze, Squish and squeeze, Slow it down and find your breeze. Big feelings come, Big feelings go, Squish them gently in your dough. Squish and squeeze, Squish and squeeze, Breathe in slow and feel at ease. My body's calm, My heart feels light, And now I'm feeling just right. **OUTRO** One last squish, One last squeeze, One big breath And gentle ease. When my feelings start to grow, I can calm them with my dough.
