The Girl with the Bowl on her Head: A Mindful Bedtime Story for Kids

Ami wants to find a very, very good friend, her grandmother tells her she must wear a wooden bowl on her head and never take it off if she wants to find one. Even when her family questions her and other children tease her, Ami keeps her promise. Ami isn't sure her grandma's advice is going to work until, a boy comes along who excepts her exactly as she is. Hey parents, here are 4 ways to build attachment as you listen to the story together: 1) Pretend to have a bowl on your head with your child. 2) Model the breathing technique. 3) Model the mindful movement; keep it slow and calm. 4) Whisper the affirmations with your child.
