Sometimes children have worries that they feel that no-one can solve. This may be because there is no-one available to talk to at that time, or that they do not want to upset\/worry anyone or even that what they are worried about is too abstract and so can\u2019t be fixed (like monsters hiding under the bed). No matter how big or small we perceive a child\u2019s worry to be to them it is just very real – and that can be very frightening for them.\u00a0Psychologists often recommend writing down your worries to help overcome anxiety and upsetting thoughts.<\/p>\n

This is where a Sorgenfresser Worry Eaters can come in. How it works is that the children can either write or draw their worry on a piece of paper and feed it into the worry Eater\u2019s mouth. The child can ensure that the worry cannot escape by zipping shut the mouth whilst the Sorgenfresser Worry Eater digests it. There are many different personalities that can be chosen from in many different colours: Flint, Flamm, Wanda, Pomm, Saggo, Betti, Bill, Frula, Polli, Om, Enno, Schnucci, Ernst, Rumpel, Ed, Gump, Sepp and Biff.<\/p>\n
