It’s all well and good to ask our kid’s to “take a deep breath” but getting a dysregulated kid to do anything, helpful or not, can be a lot to ask! This is where Kira Willey comes in. Using imaginitive and playful images, Kira has created a resource used by parents, caregivers, and schools around the globe.
Breath Like a Bear shares 30 exercises that are short and easy to follow, inviting kids and their adults to practice different breathing exercises together. Perfect for mindfulness moments during the day or at bedtime, this book (or card deck) helps you practice that oh-so-important skill when you’re calm so it will be right at your fingertips when you need it most.
Personally, my favourite is the Hot Chocolate exercise! I use it with groups of kids whenever I get the chance.
