Welcome to The Springs Kids

The Springs mindful quest is a safe and supportive space where kids can explore mindfulness in fun, engaging, and age-appropriate ways. Through movement, breathing, creativity, and group sharing, kids learn practical tools to calm their minds, manage stress, and build confidence. 

kids today are navigating big changes…emotionally, socially, and academically. 

Mindfulness gives them healthy ways to:

• Reduce stress and anxiety

• Build emotional awareness

• Strengthen focus and resilience

• Boost confidence and self-compassion

• Develop lifelong coping skills 

• Greater sense of calm and inner peace

• Improved focus and emotional regulation

• Stronger sense of connection to themselves and others

• A foundation of resilience to carry into their teen years

Give your child a calm, supportive space to reset after the holidays and step into the new year feeling grounded and confident.

In this 90-minute Springs Mindful Kids workshop, we will explore simple tools for emotional awareness, nervous system regulation, and self-expression in a fun, age-appropriate way. This is a drop-off workshop, so parents can use the time for errands, a quiet moment to themselves, or to catch up on work while we take great care of their kids in a nurturing, supervised setting.

What We Will Work On:

• Learn what stress and “big feelings” feel like in the body
• Practice easy grounding tools to calm worry, overwhelm, and after-school jitters
• Explore mindful breathing and simple somatic movements to release tension
• Build emotional vocabulary and learn how to name what they are feeling
• Practice positive self-talk and confidence-building exercises
• Try a short, guided relaxation to help their body and brain feel safe and settled
• Connect with other kids in a supportive, nonjudgmental space

Your child will leave with practical tools they can use at home, at school, and in activities when they feel stressed, overwhelmed, or unsure of themselves.

What They Will Bring Home:

• A Mind–Body Check-In Card to help them notice how they feel in their body and emotions
• A Calm-Down Toolkit Sheet with 3 to 5 simple regulation tools (breathing, movement, grounding)
• A Positive Affirmation Card they create themselves to support confidence and self-kindness
• A Parent Guide Handout summarizing what we practiced, with suggestions for using these tools at home
