Let's say you are building with blocks...could you knock your building over and talk out loud about how you are feeling and what your choices are and what you decide to do.

Example...oops I knocked my building over, I guess I could give up because I am the worst block builder to ever walk the face of the earth...or I could redesign my building so that it has more support on the bottom...or you know I could do something different with the blocks like set them up like dominoes and knock them over on purpose. But you know what no matter what I decide, they are just blocks if they knock over I can just start over or if I am tired of blocks I can clean up move on to another activity.

Repeat with coloring (pick the wrong color, color outside the lines) and talking through your options....putting together puzzles, etc.
