A Mindfulness Song for Kids About Calming Down, Gratitude, and Being Present

10 Tips for Parents to Support Calm Moments:
  1. Pause with your child and ask: “What can you hear, smell, feel, or see right now?” Just like Lila guided Oliver.
  2. Play it before sleep to slow racing thoughts and bring your child into the peaceful now.
  3. Use a small notebook or make a flower-shaped journal to write or draw one beautiful moment per day.
  4. Say aloud, “I’m feeling overwhelmed. Let me take a deep breath and listen to the wind.”
  5. Repeat: “Breathe in deep, then let it go” during tough moments or transitions.
  6. Go for a quiet walk and do a “garden scan” like Oliver—notice textures, light, and sounds.
  7. Guide your child to imagine breathing in flowers and breathing out fairy sparkles.
  8. Help your child enjoy quiet space and stillness—don’t rush from one thing to the next.
  9. Say, “It’s okay to feel wiggly. That’s why we take a moment like Oliver did.”
  10. Even 10 seconds of stillness or mindful noticing deserves praise. Say, “That’s the magic of now.”
