Making Memories
In a world where children are increasingly attached to their screens, and their memories often are only held digitally, this ebook offers a creative analogue solution. It is a fun how-to e-guide to engaging with the world around us through mindfulness activities and journaling tips. Little ones are taken through activities, from physical and mental exercises to crafting and writing tasks, which teach them to value the little things in their lives. They learn crafts to calm a busy mind, discover Buddhist meditation, and explore the outdoors mindfully. Some activities encourage kids to create something physical to remember special events, friends, or holidays, so memories aren't restricted to pictures on a screen. Each activity and thought encourages a sense of calm or wellbeing, which helps children to live in the moment and make memories in the real world. The ebook features an environmental awareness, too, with activities encouraging sustainability and recycling. Beautiful, soothing colours and a fun scrapbook aesthetic combine to make a how-to e-guide to cherish.
