Calm Down Cards - 12 pack | The Creative Sprout

This beautifully illustrated set of 12 Calm Down Cards has been designed to help children develop simple, practical tools for self-regulation, emotional awareness, and calming their bodies when feeling overwhelmed.

Children experience big emotions as part of growing and learning, and having visual strategies they can refer to can make a meaningful difference during moments of frustration, worry, anger, or overstimulation.

Why families and educators love the Calm Down Cards 💛

What’s inside ✨

Includes calming and mindfulness activities such as:
✔ 5 Finger Breathing
✔ Lion’s Breath
✔ Lazy 8 Breathing
✔ Calm Down Count Down
✔ My Emotions Wheel

Breathing and grounding activities are widely recognised for helping lower stress responses and bringing attention back to the present moment - helping children gradually move from overwhelm toward calm.

By practising these strategies regularly, many children begin to naturally recognise which tool helps them when emotions feel big.
