Do you wish you knew how to help your child calm down when they’re upset, mad, frustrated, sad or angry?

Teaching your child calming techniques helps them develop the skills they need to recover from their most challenging emotions. Regularly practicing calming techniques supports your child’s emotional development, develops their self regulation skills and builds their resilience.

Plus, research has found that when our kids learn self regulation skills in early childhood they are more likely to have improved behaviour, better social skills, a higher level of engagement in school, better academic outcomes and improved mental health and wellness throughout their life.

Regularly practicing calming techniques supports your child’s emotional development, develops their self regulation skills and builds their resilience.

When your children practice these skills, they become equipped to better process and regulate challenging emotions such as angry, frustrated, sad, embarrassed, overwhelmed and anxious.

Calming techniques are particularly useful for helping your child:

  • Start the day calm
  • Reduce separation anxiety (e.g. at drop-off)
  • Transition off screens
  • Calm down before bed

Calming Cards can be used in a variety of contexts, including:

  • A calming corner (or calming space) in your home
  • Out and about
  • Calming activities before bed
  • Classrooms
  • Day Care Centres

    This cards are brilliant, great techniques to use for the little emotions. I’ve got 3 different type kids and they work great for my older two and just about time to used them on my youngest with his terrible twos!

    The calming cards are fantastic. My children work well with visuals and need help with emotional regulation. We have been practising these cards and am happy with the results.

    We having been loving using the calming cards with our 21month old little girl, her reception has been very positive especially when we notice she in frustrated, these cards have also taught her to close her eyes on cue.
    Thank you so much for these beautiful resources and bring calm in to our home !

    Just starting using my cards, but the children have loved using them and talking about what is on them. They are an excellent and effective way of helping children with their emotions. Thank you so much for the resource, I also love the natural looking bag.
