Calm Resources for Kids

Mindfulness tools and calming activities for children, families, and educators

At Shine Om, we know that emotional regulation doesn’t always come easily, especially for kids. That’s why we’ve created a growing library of calm, mindfulness-based resources to help little ones explore calm, connection, and self-awareness through creativity and play.

From beautiful colouring books to movement-based games and printable guides, our calm resources for kids and tools are designed to support emotional regulation at home, in the classroom, or wherever life takes your family.

Designed by a Mum, Yoga Teacher & Mindfulness Educator

Each Shine Om resource is grounded in trauma-informed practice, childhood development, and real-life parenting. These tools aren’t just pretty—they’re practical, evidence-informed, and designed to help children thrive.

Family Gratitude Journal

The Family Gratitude Journal is a gentle, practical tool designed to help families build calm, connection, and kindness into everyday life — without adding pressure or complexity.

Created to be used for just 10 minutes a day (five minutes in the morning and five before bed or whenever suits your family rhythm), the journal supports children and parents in slowing down, reflecting, and reconnecting through simple gratitude practices that meet families where they are.

Inside you’ll find weekly challenges, daily write-or-draw pages, playful family activities, seasonal reflections, and affirmations — all designed to support emotional regulation, co-regulation, and meaningful family moments.

This journal works beautifully alongside the free Calm Resources for Kids, offering a longer-term rhythm for families who want to deepen their gratitude practice at home.
