Huff and Puff: A Tiny Human’s Guide to Mindful Breathing

A colourful board book that introduces conscious breathing for children and adults because learning how to control your breathing is a valuable tool in working through stressful and trying situations at any age. Take a big breath in and let a big breath out is the mantra of this interactive board book that teaches conscious breathing to children (and adults) through everyday actions like smelling flowers and blowing bubbles. These identifiable activities make the concept of mindful breathing accessible to toddlers and easy to learn and practice. The interactive spread with five lift-the-flaps reinforces fundamental counting skills from 1 to 5 and the basic breathing techniques presented. The reassuring ending reminds children that everything will be okay, because when things get rough they will know to first huff and then puff.
