The Finger Tracing Calming Cards support young people when they are experiencing heightened states. These cards can be used as a tool to help children calm down, develop self-awareness, and practice mindfulness. Not only do these cards promote calm but they also develop fine motor skills. See how easy it is for a 3 year old to use.
Through regular use, these cards can help children to become better at slowing down and managing their big feelings. The emotional development of young people relies on self-regulation, a skill often underdeveloped due to their nascent nervous system and evolving prefrontal cortex, the brain's emotional control center. Many children, and even adults, grapple with managing their intense emotions.
