He still requests to do a page or two every night (“don’t forget my breathing book mama!”) and the exercises have been easy to implement in and outside of the house. He tells me “I need to breathe to help me to calm my body” totally unprompted after just 2 months of reading it. </p> <p>Breathe Like a Bear: 30 Mindful Moments for Kids to Feel Calm and Focused Anytime, Anywhere <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1623368839/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_5HB3Cb6EBB58C" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/1623368839/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_5HB3Cb6EBB58C</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mindfulness-for-kids#post-2884744 Thu, 16 May 2019 09:11:16 +0000 hitchhiker 2884744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kids also love Cosmic Kids and I often give yoga poses as one option for helping to calm down when they feel out of sorts. I also prompt deep breaths as a calm down technique. </p> <p>We also listen to the Peace Out podcast, which starts with a guided meditation and then has relaxation stories. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mindfulness-for-kids#post-2884733 Thu, 16 May 2019 07:44:44 +0000 Iced Tea 2884733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought the set from Generation Mindful. I'd say the focus of the program is more on emotional regulation and emotional intelligence. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mindfulness-for-kids#post-2884661 Wed, 15 May 2019 15:02:04 +0000 Mrs. Turtle 2884661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Obviously these books are for parents, but they have a ton of practical suggestions and are very focused on mindfulness. Whole Brain Child, No-Drama Discipline and The Yes Brain are all wonderful resources. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mindfulness-for-kids#post-2884623 Wed, 15 May 2019 12:33:21 +0000 My Only Sunshine 2884623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kids like the activities and guided breathing in this book: Calm: Mindfulness for Kids <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1465470905/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_r0e3CbYHPK2R4" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/1465470905/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_r0e3CbYHPK2R4</a></p> <p>We also do Cosmic Kids yoga on YouTube which incorporates some mindfulness-ish ideas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mindfulness-for-kids#post-2884606 Wed, 15 May 2019 10:20:31 +0000 MrsBucky 2884606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It’s specifically Catholic, but we recently bought “Sitting like a saint: Catholic mindfulness for kids” and I really like the stories and exercises. But you have to be cool with saint life stories. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mindfulness-for-kids#post-2884601 Wed, 15 May 2019 09:59:03 +0000 SweetCaroline 2884601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What mindfulness resources have you used with your children? We have very basic tactics from a previous daycare center but looking to deepen our resources for day to day. DD is 4. </p>
