Mindfulness is a simple but highly effective tool that can be used to bring awareness to feelings and develop important life skills like patience, resilience and perseverance. We like to think of these skills as superpowers!
These five nature-themed characters are more than just adorable plush toys. Each one has a simple mindfulness exercise that children listen to in the form of a story. Children hug the pillow to discover the story, activating an internal audio speaker with a gentle squeeze.
The stories are mindfulness meditations specially adapted for children. Each is around two minutes long and told by a soothing female voice, with sound effects inspired by nature and animals.
Each character has its own special mindfulness superpowers to pass on to children as they listen to the story.
