Breathing exercises can help calm and recenter kids that are overstimulated or anxious. Try these fun breathing techniques before the crisis comes so your kids know how to calm themselves down when the time comes.

Gentle reminder: calming the nervous system can be simple, playful, and effective 🌿

These animal breathing exercises are designed to help both children and adults regulate stress, anxiety, and overwhelm in a safe, accessible way.
Slow exhales, gentle movement, humming, and playful sounds all send signals of safety to the nervous system.

You can use these:
✨ during anxiety or panic
✨ before sleep
✨ after emotional overwhelm
✨ with children who struggle to express feelings
✨ when your body feels dysregulated

There’s no “right” way to breathe — just notice what feels supportive in your body today 🤍
Save this post and come back to it whenever you need a moment of calm.

Viral cold season is in full swing! 🤧😷🤒If your kids are sick, keep them at home to recuperate and decrease the spread of infections. Stay healthy!

Here’s a simple flow chart to help you determine when your child needs to stay home from school. Most kids with a cold or stomach bug will recover on their own with some extra rest and fluids and do not need to be seen by a doctor, but you should call your pediatrician right away if your child has difficulty breathing, blue lips or nails, extreme fatigue, or is showing signs of dehydration.

There have been recent violent events happening across the country. Limiting exposure to the news can be the best way to avoid scary thoughts developing in young imaginative minds. Here are some ways to help your kids if they do hear about these events.

When little ones hear about violent events on the news or in their communities, it can be hard to help them understand and cope with what happened. Limiting media exposure and making space for them to express big feelings can help children feel safer and more secure.

Help your kids to be their confident self with these affirming words. ✨

Confident kids aren’t born.
They’re built.

Built when their ideas are taken seriously.
Built when they’re allowed to struggle without being rescued.
Built when their feelings are safe.
Built when they’re trusted with real responsibility.

Confidence doesn’t come from praise alone.
It comes from being seen.
Being heard.
Being allowed to try, fail, and try again.

When kids believe their voice matters at home,
they grow up believing it matters everywhere.

Pedestrian safety is important to teach your kids. Make sure they know to look, then look again, to safely cross the street.

👧 Teaching your child to cross the street safely is one of the most important life lessons you can give. Whether they’re walking to school, practice, or the park, our kids deserve safe streets.

🤝 Let’s do your part. Be alert and look out for our youngest pedestrians.

The booklist is designed to help you create the opportunity to have meaningful discussions with your kids about the topics you encounter in these stories.

A few of these (Martin Rising, Martin & Mahalia, Let the Children March, and Memphis, Martin and the Mountaintop) may be best for older kids.

Here are some questions to start the conversation about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his legacy.

These 5 questions are a great way to learn a little more about his life as a family, and honor his incredible contributions to society.⁠
⁠
1️⃣ Martin Luther King Jr. was an activist in the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s who led non-violent demonstrations for the rights of all people, including African Americans. What’s something you can do as a kid to help fight for equal rights?⁠
⁠
2️⃣ King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. If you could give a Peace Prize to the kindest person you know, who would you choose? What would you say when you presented them with the award?⁠
⁠
3️⃣ On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, people across the country pause to honor his legacy through acts of service. If you were going to spend a day volunteering for any cause, what would it be, and what would you do to help out?⁠
⁠
4️⃣ King made many important speeches about equality, including the “I Have a Dream” speech. If you gave a speech to your whole town, what would be your most important message? What quote would be the most memorable?⁠
⁠
5️⃣ There are nearly 1,000 streets in the United States named after Martin Luther King Jr. Why do you think that is? If you could name anything in your town after Dr. King, what would you pick?
