So this one is called 'Silly Noodles', do you know what a noodle is?
CHILD: No
It's like a long bit of spaghetti
CHILD: Yeah
Can you lie down and imagine you're a bit of spaghetti?
Can you do that?
CHILD: Yeah
It allows us to spend that one-on-one time together which with such busy lives, doesn't happen perhaps as often as it should. When I'm home I try to make the most of the time I have with the kids
CHILD: Daddy!
I’m doing the washing and cooking and all that sort of thing… and it just makes it really difficult.
CHILD: Daddy.
Yeah? [Laughs]
It's just about slowing down for a moment and doing something together Mindful Monsters is a great way for parents and children to to interact through activities based on the concept of mindfulness. It helps them to be positive, confident and look at the world in different lights.
My eldest daughter finds it very difficult to control her emotions. They can really get angry when you don’t expect it. Just being able to stop breath and being able to reflect on the situation really helps her then just calm down.
It comes as a pack of cards which focuses on concentration, relaxation, positivity and creativity. They come through the post and for 12 months you can a fresh pack every month and the children get so excited because they know there will be new activities to try.
So on the way to school we can go through a card or two. You are in the moment, together.
MOTHER: Do you feel your heart? Is it going fast or slow?
Being a teacher I think it’s really really valuable, not just at home when we are doing the activities but also to help her to concentrate more at school or to overcome a situation in the playground where she is feeling quite anxious.
It works. I’ve seen it work. It helps my children to channel their energy in the right way.
The cards are inexpensive, for a really good cause – raising money for scope. It creates wonderful family moments. Definitely try it I wouldn’t go out without them now.
