These Mindful Maze boards are a really clever little tool—simple, but surprisingly effective. My niece (who’s a bit of a fidgeter) took to them straight away. The idea is to trace your finger through the grooves while breathing slowly, and it really does help them pause and focus.They’re chunky and durable, perfect for little hands, and the different patterns keep things interesting. I like that there's no noise, flashing lights, or batteries—just a calm, tactile activity they can do on their own. We’ve kept one in the car and one in the playroom, and they’ve both had plenty of use.Great for winding down before bed or for moments when they’re getting a bit overexcited. Would make a thoughtful stocking filler or even a quiet-time toy for nursery bags. Feels like something you'd be happy to hand over again and again without it getting annoying.

I use these in my calm down corner. They really help the kids calm down and focus on their breathing. They enjoy tracing the shapes while breathing. They really help kids calm down and they are very well made. This is my second set. I bought one set at a previous campus and when I moved I bought another set.

They work well and it was easy to teach my daughter how to used these. They are very sturdy and will last if stepped on. I think they are worth it especially if you have kids that are having a difficult time calming their bodies down.

These were quite helpful for age 3ish. Helped to distract and to teach breathing. I was so proud the first time kiddo was upset and he chose to go use one of these and I could hear him doing deep breaths. It has turned more into a toy and is used less now that he's almost 5 but I would say it was definitely a useful tool!

I was thoroughly surprised at hpw quickly my 2yo and 3yo caught on to the breathing patterns. It keeps my 3yo busy for about 20 minutes at a time, she just really enjoys rubbing her fingers along it. It doesn’t really keep my 2yo busy, but I give it to him when he’s struggling with a tantrum and *so far* it’s been distracting enough to help him calm down, or at least do the breathing until he forgets what he is upset about.It would be pretty cool if there was a way to do different designs.

Il s'agit de 3 plaques réversibles. Adaptées aux doigts des enfants, douces, faciles d’utilisation. Les enfants sont motivés pour l’utiliser. A voir si ça fonctionne …

These are great for practicing breathing and mindfulness techniques. The product itself is bright and intriguing for little ones. The little booklet that comes with it is informative and easily explains everything for these processes. I reccommend practicing this with the children for a few minutes each day so they will naturally use this tool in times of distress.
