Easy Christmas jellies
EQ4Kids • December 6, 2019
These Christmas-themed jellies make a yummy festive end to Christmas dinner for the kids - or change the colours to make a dessert for any other time of year! Get the kids to help you make the jelly - just start two days before you want to serve them so they have time to set.
Ingredients
1 packet of raspberry jelly
1 packet of passionfruit jelly
1 packet of lime jelly
Fresh berries or Christmas lollies to decorate
Method
- Prepare red jelly and pour 1/4 cup into each cup, refrigerate until set (will take about 4-6 hours).
- Prepare yellow jelly, allow to cool and pour 1/4 cup gently on top of red jelly, return to fridge until set.
- Prepare green jelly, allow to cool and pour 1/4 cup gently on top of yellow jelly, return to fridge until set. Just before serving, decorate with berries or lollies.
Equipment
8 small glasses or plastic cups
Notes
- This recipe does need to be started two days before needed to allow for setting times.
- Mix and match jelly colours as with Christmas or from your children's favourites.
- Be careful with the boiling water. Try dissolving the jelly crystals in 250mL of boiling water and then top up to 500mL with cold water. Then you can rest easy as the kids take over the stirring.

Fear is a natural and universal emotion that everyone experiences at some point. For children, fear can stem from a variety of sources—whether it’s the fear of the dark, separation from parents, new social situations, or fears of failure. While fear is a protective emotion designed to keep us safe, when it becomes overwhelming or persistent, it can hinder a child’s emotional growth and daily functioning. Teaching children how to manage and cope with fear through emotional intelligence (EQ) can help them face challenges confidently and build resilience in the process.

As parents, we play a pivotal role in shaping our children’s emotional experiences. While feelings like joy, excitement, and pride are often celebrated, emotions like shame are more difficult to navigate. However, understanding and managing shame in a healthy way is crucial for emotional well-being and growth. Shame is a powerful emotion, and if handled poorly, it can have lasting negative effects on a child’s self-esteem and sense of worth.
Emotional intelligence helps children build strong social skills and essential life skills they will carry for years to come.

Academic success is often associated with intellect and hard work, but there’s another vital ingredient that’s often overlooked: emotional intelligence (EQ). EQ refers to the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one’s emotions, as well as empathize with others. It plays a significant role in shaping how students approach learning, handle challenges, and interact in academic settings.
In a world increasingly driven by connection, collaboration, and empathy, emotional intelligence (EQ) is no longer an optional skill—it’s a necessity. EQ encompasses the ability to understand, manage, and express emotions while recognizing and respecting the feelings of others. For children, these abilities are foundational to success not just in relationships but in academics, careers, and personal well-being.

Biting is a common yet challenging behavior among preschool-aged children. While it can be distressing for parents, caregivers, and other children, it’s important to understand that biting is often a developmental phase. For young children who are still learning to express themselves verbally, biting can be a way of communicating frustration, seeking attention, or exploring their environment.
