Mindful Monsters: Roar Your Worries Away: 1

Product Information

Offer many different art supplies and allow the client to select the medium that fits their monster/emotions best. Clients often select multiple materials to give their artwork more depth and involve more senses in the creative process. No, silly bear! Your mother is here to drive you home!” said the secretary. Oliver ran into his mother’s arms. He was so happy! I think this is a good book to talk that children can relate to. Ezzy’s situation is quite similar to those children might be themselves facing, such as worrying about tests, missing friends, and worry for loved ones. I think the book also presents some interesting notations about how people feel physical things with emotions as well, such as being sweaty or having a pounding hear when you’re scared. Introducing Mindful Monsters to our camps means giving children more opportunities for personal development throughout their time on camp. Attending a school holiday for the first time can be overwhelming; it's certainly not uncommon to feel nervous or shy. Using their activity cards to form fun and interactive sessions aimed towards supporting children's integration onto camp, the Monsters will accompany children hand-in-hand during their time at SuperCamps. Whether it's taking a moment with Thinky to adjust to the camp environment, make new friendships with the help of Giggles or use Snug's calming techniques to reset, recharge and identify difficult emotions, the Monster's will act as both a constant support and on-hand tool for those moments of unrest.

A book focussed on mindfulness for children. Also perhaps something that could be used by schools/children’s centres. I work within children’s centres and mindfulness for children is now something we discuss and are looking into. Also perhaps a stress/anxiety toy. As mentioned by previous posters, it's not very good value for money/you don't get much really. I do think the design of the monsters is good though.A generational change in the way we all approach our daily lives means that mindfulness has entered the public consciousness, as the result of a greater awareness towards mental health. The act of being present with our thoughts and feelings, mindfulness can contribute towards children’s overall sense of wellbeing by improving focus, encouraging calm and helping them learn to cope with difficult emotions.

If Mindful Monsters was to create an additional product, what would you like it to be? I'd like more activities for a school setting as I think these would be a valued tool. This activity is easily adaptable to a wide range of treatment areas and modalities, and works with a variety of supplies. Start by gathering materials to offer the client and allow them to choose how they would like to create their monster. Below are examples of some of the most common mediums. No, she was too young (3) to really understand what they were for, she didnt enjoy some of the activites but none really changed her behaviour.The basic root of happiness lies in our minds; outer circumstances are nothing more than adverse or favourable.”– Matthieu Ricard The monsters are all wonderfully drawn; I love the variety of textures and forms they have. Each are so unique and wondrous. I like the way the illustrator has thought about how the creatures will hang around Ezzy, and the way they loom over him in the earlier stages; as if they’re overpowering. And then later on in the book, they’ll often be smaller. It’s really nice visual way to show that they’re not as powerful anymore. Oliver took another look at his monst… ooops… Fred. Now he did not look so scary. He was, in fact, very small. He looked harmless, although his taste in fashion was questionable.

Some may create one pompom that represents all of their emotions, while others may want to make one for each feeling.I think they need to be tailored into two age ranges as my DD really stuggled with some concepts so it would be a waste of money at present on her. Even if you try to make a pompom monster look ugly and scary, it will almost always turn out adorable. Children’s attitudes toward their feelings usually begin to soften when you remind them that the pompom monster represents the same difficult emotions their drawing did. You can compare the two activities to help children understand that the difference is in their perception. Whether you are looking for inventive ways to provide interventional support, or simply looking for ways to keep your children occupied on a rainy day, these Twinkl original worksheets are a great way to enhance engagement. Scope’s objective was to build a new way to recruit quality regular donors at scale and diversify supporter acquisition sustainably. Good Innovations conducted research that showed that parents with primary school children wanted to build their children’s resilience. From this came the idea of providing parents with 12 months of mindful activities to build children’s life skills and create family moments.

Scope have bought out a wonderful new product called Mindful Monsters with the dual purpose of teaching children about mindfulness and raising funds for their vital work. We were so excited to be asked to do a mindful monsters review As is the case with all of our resources here at Twinkl, these monster colouring sheets are designed by educators with the national curriculum in mind. So, you can be sure to obtain learning materials that will maximise learning outcomes and potentials.
