Wednesday Kid's Mindfulness Challenge - Brew Up some Homemade Heart Medicine

Wednesday Kid's Mindfulness Challenge - Brew Up some Homemade Heart Medicine

Do you ever get hurt? On the outside, or even on the inside? In this journey YOU become the doctor who whips up a batch of feel-good medicine that you can use whenever you need it. Shine it on an achy elbow, slather it on an achy heart or send it out to someone else who might need it. This medicine is guaranteed to brighten up your sore spots, so apply generously and repeat when needed.

The Great Realisation (Tomfoolery)

This moving video uses positive, calming, forward-thinking framing, to tackle the topic of the pandemic with kids. As parents and educators struggle to cope with messaging around the pandemic - in an effort to be honest (but not add to increasing feelings of anxiety and stress) - this uber-creative narrative provides much-needed optimism, engaging children fully at all ages (and giving adults a hopeful pause as well). Hats off to Tomfoolery… they’ve offered a thoughtful meditation our kids can spin into a positive future for themselves, despite the changes, hardships and challenges we’re all collectively facing.
