‘Working moms get such a bad… we get all freaked out because we’re told constantly ‘you have 18 summers,’ ‘you have this much time,’ ‘time is fleeting,’ and it makes you panic,’ she told the outlet.

Explaining how she handled those feelings, she said, ‘So, if you come from a place of expansiveness instead of feeling just like ‘I can’t be a mom because I’m also working, and I’m supposed to be guilty all the time’, you better just lean into wherever you are any day exactly like right now just be here when your kids show up be there and we’ll have a great time.’

The Golden Globe winner made glitter bombs with the kids as part of an activity to help them process their grief and fear.

‘Okay, so just try this out,’ she told the eager students, ‘We’re so angry, we’re frustrated, it’s raining, it makes us nervous, we are scared about something at school what can we do?’

The actress then told them to ‘shake, shake, shake’ the plastic bottles filled with water and glitter.

‘Look at your sparkles, we’re gonna breathe in through out nose, out through our mouth five times.’

Afterward she asked the students, ‘Did your sparkle settle? Did your heart settle a little bit?’

Many answered, ‘yes,’ to the delight of their special guest.

She explained her mission to NBC Nightly News Kid’s Edition saying, ‘Save [the Children] really realized there’s a lot of trauma just in growing [up] below the poverty line, and if you can name it, then you can heal, you can be resilient and move on.’

Books: During her visit,  Scholastic donated 10,000 books during a free book fair for the students who lost their library in the flooding

The Peppermint star, who also read books to the kids said, ‘It’s amazing to watch in action.

She said she was most impacted by the children’s stories.

‘They wanted me to know how scary it was, what it was like to lose their school, what it was like to lose their homes… but they’re processing it.’

As a result of the attention Jennifer and NBC brought to the current conditions at the school, Scholastic donated 10,000 books during a free book fair while she was there.’
