Calm Down Cards – Set of 12 Big feelings are a natural part of growing up — and this set of 12 Calm Down Cards is designed to gently support children on their journey toward self-regulation and emotional resilience. Featuring a variety of fun, practical and hand-illustrated activities, these cards act as visual guides to help children pause, notice how they’re feeling and explore ways to calm their bodies and minds. Rather than reacting to big emotions, children are supported with tools they can return to again and again. What we love most about this set is its versatility. The cards can be placed in a calm-down corner, used proactively as a learning tool, or explored together during quiet moments. By reading through the cards and practising the techniques when your child is already calm, they begin to build familiarity and confidence — often instinctively reaching for an exercise when emotions run high. Breathing and mindfulness activities are scientifically proven to help reduce stress and bring attention back to the present moment. These gentle exercises can help ease tantrums and meltdowns by guiding children toward a calmer state of mind — without shame or pressure. Over time, these small practices support children to better understand their emotions and develop healthy coping strategies that will serve them well into adulthood. This set includes 12 cards with the following activities: 5 Finger Breathing Lion’s Breath Lazy 8 Breathing Flower Breathing Calm Down Count Down My Emotions Wheel Yoga Pose Mindful Scavenger Hunt When Someone Is Bugging Me… Grounding Yourself Activity Ideas Calm Down Activity Ideas Draw Your Feelings Activity A gentle, empowering resource to support children through big feelings — helping them feel seen, supported and capable 🌿💛
