Mini Meditations for Kids | The Paper Girls Show

This gentle 5-minute guided meditation is an award-winning and ★★★★ rated tool designed to help children ages 5–10 calm their bodies, soften big emotions, and return to a sense of balance.

Perfect for home, classroom, or quiet reset moments, this short listening meditation supports emotional regulation, focus, and resilience—without screens.

Through simple breathing (“smell the flower, blow the feather”) and reassuring affirmations like “I am calm” and “Good things are coming,” children learn that while they can’t control everything, they can choose calm, kindness, and peace.

This practice is especially helpful for busy, creative minds that feel emotions deeply and sometimes need a gentle pause.

  • 🎧 Audio-only — no need to watch the screen
  • 🧘 Helpful for parents, caregivers, counselors, and teachers

  • ⭐ Part of the Mini Meditations for Kids series from The Paper Girls Show

Created in collaboration with Tara Segree, an educator and mindfulness practitioner with 17+ years of experience helping children manage attention, stress, and emotions with compassion and clarity.
