Help children use their senses and breathing to calm their minds and bodies with this set of five rhyming 5-4-3-2-1 breathing posters. Each poster features a simple, rhythmic verse that guides students through the grounding process—making mindfulness approachable, memorable, and fun for young learners.
This resource helps children (and adults!) manage big emotions, reduce anxiety, and refocus attention using sensory awareness and calm breathing. The rhyming format adds a gentle, engaging twist that keeps kids interested while reinforcing the steps for self-regulation.
This set pairs perfectly with my Primary Breathing Strategy Posters, creating a beautiful, coordinated calm-down space for any classroom, counseling room, or home environment.
