As your child traces around each point of the star they breathe in and breathe out. They can do this with their finger or by pushing a small wooden ball around the board. We have engraved the words Inhale and Exhale on the board to help remind the children what they need to do. Breathing boards are brilliant way to help your child practice the art of mindfulness and gratitude. Taking a few minutes out of their day to sit with their board and trace the lines can really help them refocus and keep calm. It's also a great resource to use with children who suffer from anxiety or overwhelm. Children's mental well being is so important at the moment and it's something schools and parents are focusing on a lot more. Providing children with the skills to keep themselves calm and focused, encouraging them to have a positive attitude and a great sense of self belief and worth is an incredibly valuable life skill. Our range of mindfulness boards are a great resource to use with children who suffer from anxiety or overwhelm.
