Mindfulness Books for Toddlers and Preschoolers

“Don’t tell me to take a deep breath!!!”

Has your child ever said that to you? 

You’re not wrong, they would benefit from taking a deep breath.

And if you’re being honest, you know you get really annoyed with your partner when they tell you to take a deep breath…

The following books help introduce mindfulness to your child, while giving you new tools to help guide your child in navigating their emotions.

Saying “Can you be an alligator? How would an alligator take a deep breath?” or pretending to drink hot cocoa can help everyone feel a lot calmer than just saying “take a deep breath.”
