Mindfulness Magische Bal

The way it expands and contracts makes breathing exercises click for my son in a way that just counting never did. We keep it on the coffee table and he grabs it on his own when he's wound up.

My daughter actually asks for this when she's wound up before bed. Something about pulling it apart and pushing it back together gets her breathing slow without me nagging her. The plastic feels sturdier than I expected too, since she's not exactly gentle with it.

The way the sphere expands and contracts with each breath is so intuitive—my daughter figured it out immediately and now uses it before bed without any prompting from me. It’s sturdy enough to survive being tossed around by an excited six-year-old, too.
