Mindfulness encourages one to be present in the moment with thoughts and feelings, but without making judgments. It allows people to give their brain a break, something kids and adults so often need. In this, you will get 3 mindfulness coloring worksheets. Coloring is a great mindfulness technique to teach kids.
Practicing mindfulness on a regular basis encourages a number of positive health effects, including more positive emotions, stress reduction, stronger immune system, increased focus and attention, greater empathy and compassion for others, decreased levels of anxiety/depression, and greater emotional control. These techniques and strategies can be helpful for kids struggling with depression, anxiety, anger, lack of attention, or other behavioral concerns. Click picture below to start coloring! CALMING GLITTER JARS FOR MINDFULNESS AND RELAXATIONCalming Glitter Jars are a game changer for children and even adults! These calm down glitter jars help children self-regulate and just melt away the troubles that are causing big emotions. It can be very difficult for some children to calm down and decompress on their own. Here are some of the many reasons that glitter jars will help:
They are hands-down some of my favorite tools to help keep a calm and relaxed atmosphere as well as to prevent meltdowns. But we also love to use them in places like dramatic play, house area, or quiet areas.
I do recommend using plastic containers if there is a risk of it falling on tile or any other really hard surface. Some people find glass to be a great fit, but only you can make that determination. Remember to hot glue or super glue it at the end so that you don’t end up with glitter all over. |
