As we are going through challenging times, understanding and practicing Mindfulness is now more
Mindfulness is the ability to focus on the present moment – and do so in a positive way. It helps children learn to reflect on the triggers and take a pause before choosing how to react. It allows them to savor the beautiful moments of the day and be kind to themselves and others. Mindfulness also enables our students to stay focused and concentrate when working on Montessori lessons.
At La Prima Casa Montessori, our students build emotional intelligence by learning how to identify their emotions, understand them and choose their reactions. Mindfulness is an important skill we teach our students to prepare them for life.
Here are five Mindfulness activities that will help you become more mindful and teach Mindfulness to your child at home:

Whichever activity you choose, practicing Mindfulness with your child will help you and your little one stay positive, calm and focused during these challenging times and beyond.
