Abstract	Teachers are sometimes puzzled and frustrated by some children's difficulties and troubles as these children respond aggressively when feeling that peers crowd too close or seem 'threatening'. This article provides a variety of bodily games to help children become more aware of how their bodies and muscles work. The activities suggested are pleasurable and they also enhance children's interpersonal and behavioral self-control skills. Ideas are suggested so that teachers can use the activities specifically to boost and encourage children's creative imagination and, as well, increase children's feelings of being in charge of their own movements and bodily responses. (As Provided).
