try changing things up-

move stuff around
do the everyday everyday a little different one day
try stepping outside of the box
focus on one kid at a time and the issues that child is having
breathe deep air breaths
take care of you
talk with parents, sometimes just telling them that little guy had a ruff day and would not leave his friends alone can help. Ask the parent to talk with the child. Don't make this an everyday thing, no parent wants to hear that their child had a bad day everyday. If they are having a bad day everyday maybe your program is not the best fit for the kiddo and that is ok.
be serious when necessary but don't be over serious all day every day. Let little things slide, pick and choose your battles.
Preplan
Get the kids outside if you can
let the weekends or off time be yours, and your families.
Remember why you loved your job in the first place.
Do online and face to face research on how to better your program and better deal with the issues you are having.

Know your not alone-

best
