Sitting Still Like a Frog: Mindfulness Exercises for Kids (And Their Parents)

---

Sitting Still Like a Frog by Eline Snel is a gentle, practical guide introducing mindfulness to children (ages roughly 5-12) and their parents, blending explanation with lively exercises. Through about eleven guided practices (supported by an audio CD), the book teaches kids how to notice and calm their emotions, deal with worries, improve focus, fall asleep more easily, and practice patience. It uses vivid metaphors (like being still like a frog), simple breathing techniques, and family exercises (such as the “Personal Weather Report” to talk about internal feelings). Snel’s style is supportive and non-judgmental, making mindfulness accessible and usable in everyday life.
