This is the Christmas spirit…..Tiny voice, big holiday joy 🎶🎄
She’s singing Jingle Bells her own sweet way while decorating a felt tree, fully in the moment and loving every second.
This is what Christmas is about—not the presents, but the experiences.
Because the memories are built through connection. 💛✨ Merry Christmas!

Day 24 🎄✨
Yes- She says, “Hi. Poo. Poo.” 😂
Very toddler. I don’t give it attention, we keep going, and we have fun anyway — because that’s real life with little ones.

Today’s final fidget is a Santa-themed pop-it game 🎅
Pop-it games support hand-eye coordination, focus, sustained attention, and playful turn-taking — all through simple, engaging play.

Thank you for being on this 24-day fidget advent calendar journey with us. It’s been such a joy sharing it with you. 💛

“I’m listening.” 🩷

During the holidays, little ears hear everything — the tone, the tension, the whispers, and the words said under our breath.

Family gatherings, changed routines, and hard conversations can feel overwhelming for tiny nervous systems, even when adults think kids aren’t paying attention.

Tiny humans have big ears.
They are always listening — and learning how to speak to others, how to handle stress, and how to move through hard moments by watching us.

Gentle reminder this season: slow down, soften your voice, and lead with care — even in the messy, imperfect moments.

Fidget Calendar – Day 23 🎄🐾

Today’s fidget was a sticky paw — a festive dog paw in red and green with lots of sparkle. Super sticky, super stretchy… and definitely one of those fidgets you either love or really don’t 😅

Some kids love the intense tactile input and the stretch factor. Me? I was already bracing myself the moment I saw it in the little bag — sticky fidgets are just not my favorite. But that’s the beauty of fidgets: different tools work for different sensory systems, and preferences matter 💛

Sometimes holiday photos look like smiles and sparkle…
and sometimes they look like big feelings in a tiny body 🤍

This season, so many grown-ups are trying to capture the perfect picture — but little ones aren’t performing for memories.
They’re feeling the moment.

New routines, bright lights, busy rooms, unfamiliar faces, excitement, and exhaustion can send little nervous systems into overload — and that doesn’t mean anything is wrong.

The real holiday magic isn’t perfection.
It’s presence.
It’s comfort.
It’s meeting tears with patience and play instead of pressure.

These messy, wiggly, emotional moments?
They count too.
They’re part of the magic ✨

Day 22 of the fidget calendar 🎄🤖

Two surprises today!
First up: a stretchy robot fidget with pull-out arms that extend like a pop tube — crinkly, noisy, and full of movement. It’s a great auditory + tactile fidget and also doubles as a pretend play toy, letting kids imagine, create stories, and engage their curiosity through play.

Second surprise: a classic Christmas tree pop-it 🎄 Simple, familiar, and always effective for repetitive pressing, hand strength, and calming sensory input.

Different fidgets, different needs — both supporting regulation, creativity, and play in their own way 💛

Favorite Kids Gifts Part 4: Pretend Play ✨🧸
One of my favorite types of gifts to give kids is anything that invites imagination and pretend play.
Play kitchens, food sets, dolls, animals, vehicles, and open-ended toys (hello Melissa & Doug 👋) give kids permission to create their own worlds.

Pretend play supports:
• Creativity & imagination
• Language development
• Emotional expression
• Social skills & problem-solving
• Making sense of the world around them

When kids can cook a meal, run a store, care for a baby, or create a whole story—there’s no “right” way to play. And that’s where the magic is ✨

Day 21 – Fidget Rings 💍✨

Fidget rings are a favorite over here. They offer quiet, repetitive movement that can help with focus, regulation, and busy hands — without being distracting. Discreet enough for classrooms, meetings, or on-the-go moments, and often teacher-approved for that reason. Simple, effective, and easy to wear.

Day 20 of our fidget calendar!
Today’s pick is a mesh fidget that expands and collapses with your hands — perfect for busy fingers that need something quiet, stretchy, and satisfying.

It’s great for fidgeting and can double as a simple breathwork tool:
➡️ expand it as you breathe in
➡️ gently collapse it as you breathe out

Hands moving, body slowing, nervous system supported ✨

The Beginning

Breathing Through Counseling & Wellness Services was created out of a desire to work individually with both children and adolescents, in an attempt to assist them in overcoming the adverse effects of trauma. Throughout my career, working with children in various capacities, I have seen the effects that unresolved trauma can have the individual, their families. and communities. These effects can be minimized when trauma survivors receive treatment tailored to meet their specific needs. Breathing Through Counseling & Wellness Services strives to be a safe place, where the therapist and client work together to create a specialized treatment plan based on the individual’s needs. It is my hope is that this will not just be the start of a business but the beginning of much healing.
