The great news is that teaching mindfulness activities don’t have to be hard!
In fact, these free printables are simple ways to help your kids practice and develop mindfulness skills.
In this free printable pack, you’ll get 10 mindfulness activities featuring Fall foliage. Gentle instructions guide your kids through exercises designed to calm and redirect.
Each printable exercise is like a prop (or resource) that your child can use to focus on how their breath feels, their body feels, and more ways to enjoy fun mindfulness activities.
As your child slowly traces the lines of these colorful leaves, they will use their breath to work on affirmations, gain self-control, and release frustration.
Deep breaths can be so helpful in dealing with emotions (like sadness, anger, and stress) and developing a mindful practice for self-regulation and more.
Or your child can choose to customize the experience for whatever they need at that time to enjoy the positive benefits of mindfulness!
Oh, and your child can use their fingers or other tools (like crayons, pens, and pencils) to trace the Fall-themed shapes. The texture of a crayon can be very soothing. You can set a timer for each exercise or just let your kids go with the guided meditation and exercise.
You can print out as many copies as you need. If you know someone who you think would love these Fall Mindfulness activities for kids for their homeschool or classroom, please share
