The Best YouTube Videos for Kids: 24 Powerful Life Lessons. When it comes to videos for kids, YouTube is full of junk – some of them more disturbing than others.
To wade through it all, my personal guideline for what I’ll let my kids watch is this: Would I sit down and watch this alongside my child?

It can be helpful to have a discussion with your class prior to the session to get them thinking about the topic (not essential).
Encourage your class to make comments and ask questions - the session is not about right and wrong, it's a discussion where everyone's thoughts are valid. It's equally okay not to speak up during the session, as long as students are listening (we emphasise this point because some sensitive issues can come up and students may need to process these silently).

Although the sessions are pre-written, we make them as interactive as possible and have the capacity to be quite responsive to students' interest/needs. There is room for students to ask questions or raise issues that are off the chosen topic (the counsellor will make sure all the necessary information is covered during the session).
