Thank you Kelly Mahler for saying the thing! We’ve agreed about this for a long time, simply saying “you’re safe” or “you’re fine” isn’t sufficient, people need to FEEL it.

We got curious this year about what felt safety really means.

Because safety isn’t something we can talk someone into; it’s something we co-create through trust, consistency, and care.

When our actions align with our words, people’s nervous systems begin to believe us.

Let’s keep getting curious about what helps others, and ourselves, feel safe, not just hear that they are.

✨Building Interoceptive Awareness Through Play!✨

We’ve been exploring interoceptive awareness — our body’s internal “check-in” system that helps us notice things like hunger, thirst, a full bladder, body temperature, or when we need a big movement break. When kids learn to understand and respond to these signals, it supports regulation, confidence, and independence. 💪🌿

One of my favorite tools for building this awareness is the Shine-a-Light book “The Human Body”! Using a flashlight to reveal hidden images inside the body helps kids connect what they feel with what’s actually happening under the skin — from their beating heart to their gurgling tummy. 🔦❤️

Learning about our bodies can be fun, empowering, and full of wonder! ✨

🚨 Important Notice 🚨
We’ve been informed that our business phone number is currently being spoofed by scammers. If you receive a suspicious call that looks like it’s coming from us — especially requesting personal information or payment — please do not engage and hang up immediately. You can call the troopers and/or fill out a complaint form from the FCC or Internet Crisis Complaint Center.

We’re still here and reachable, but we will never ask for sensitive information over the phone. Jillian, Michael or Grace are the only people you will EVER speak to about any of this, and even then we do not ask for sensitive information over the phone. Please be careful and vigilant.

Thank you for your understanding while we work to resolve this!💜 💚WildFree Kids
