I am a freelance storyteller with EYP status. I have 25 years experience working with children and in a range of early years settings. I have rewritten the classic tale of The Gingerbread Man using rhyme and repetition throughout. I have written a Planning Ideas Pack (PIP) full of activities linked to the story. This includes book lists, recipes and a song. The PIP is available in EYFS format or Curriculum of Excellence format.

Mindfulness - a resource to help with breathing techniques

(0)
A leaf and a flower which can be cut out and used to help with breathing exercises when practicing mindfulness. Provide these already cut out and laminated or ask your students to cut them out. The exercise: hold a leaf in one hand and a flower in the other. Breathe in and smell the flower, pause, breathe out and blow the leaf. This can help children to control their breathing when practicing mindfulness.
