Mindfulness for Kids offers fun activities for kids ages six to 12 to
stay cool, happy, and present with mindfulness.
Homework horrors, chores, and not-so-friendly friends - that's enough to
make any kid's brain hurt. The secret to staying cool is easy: It's
called mindfulness - and this book gives kids fun activities to practice
it on their own.
Mindfulness for Kids applies mindfulness exercises to stories and
real-life scenarios that kids go through at home, school, and with
friends. Shared through the voices of five children: Jasmine, Willow,
Kayli, Colby, and Zeke, Mindfulness for Kids is an engaging,
kid-friendly guide for handling tough situations and powerful emotions
mindfully.
- From using belly breathing to help with panic before a presentation to
actively listening to siblings, Mindfulness for Kids addresses the
everyday challenges that kids face with:
- Mindfulness 101 that teaches kids what mindfulness is, and how they
can be mindful of their emotions and senses.
- Relatable, real-life scenarios that kids encounter at home, school,
and with friends.
- 30 Fun exercises that show kids how tricks like a gratitude list,
"counting to calm", and even yoga poses can help them relax and feel
better from not-so-nice feelings.
Mindfulness is a kind of superpower we all have but don't know how to
use. In this book, kids will learn how to use this power to feel good
about themselves and the world around them through activities and
stories told by kids, for kids.
