This week, we’re joined by Flair for the Mindful Lil Minds takeover.

The Mindful Lil Minds Breathing Meditation Buddy is a brand-new toy that’s designed to look like a cute and cuddly soft toy koala… with a special twist! This brilliant toy is designed to stimulates the senses of sight, sound, smell and touch to help manage stress levels and anxiety, through play.   Designed to help children practice mindfulness, helping them become more present, and offering them strategies to manage their emotions in stressful situations.

Not only does this koala guide children through a five-minute guided meditation, but its belly expands and retracts in time with the guided meditation, showing children how they can follow the practice. The toy is lightly scented to smell like eucalyptus, which has aromatherapy properties, and it has a weighted beaded bottom to make him all the more comforting! You can find out more via the main takeover page here
