My Warm Hands
Rub your palms together, hold them apart, and notice what you feel. Then draw what that warmth looks like to you.
Little Lights · Band 1 · Ages 5–7
The Little Light Inside
Four gentle pages about noticing — warm hands, a soft toy riding the breath, a sound fading to nothing, and the things that make a day feel shiny. No explanations to follow, nothing to get right.
2–3 minutes, an adult alongside
Teddy Rides the Waves
Lie down, rest a soft toy on your tummy, and watch it ride up and down. Count five rides, then draw your teddy sailing.
The Listening Game
A grown-up rings a bell or taps a glass. Put your hand up the moment the sound disappears completely.
Things That Make Me Feel Shiny
Draw four: a person, a place, a thing and a moment that make your day feel a little brighter.
For the grown-up
A note before you begin
- Sit alongside your child rather than sending them off with the page. These are meant to be shared.
- Two or three minutes is plenty. Stop while it is still enjoyable, and come back another day.
- Every answer is right — including “I didn’t feel anything.” Noticing nothing is a real and perfectly good answer.
- Your child can always say no, or stop halfway. That is part of the invitation, not a failure.
- This is not a health treatment and does not replace seeing a doctor or nurse about anything that worries you.
- These pages are offered as one way of looking at the world, not as fact. They are meant to sit comfortably alongside whatever your family already believes.
