Calm Explorers is a 35-page adventure book that helps kids aged 8 to 12 get to know their
own nervous system and find out what helps them feel calm, comfortable or awake.
Educating children on how their nervous system works and how it works day and night to
keep children feeling safe, helps them to move, and lets them feel.
Big feelings are part of growing up. Calm Explorers gives children a playful, hands-on way to
understand them, with no screens needed.
Inside are 17 short experiments. Each starts with a kid-friendly “Science Bit” so children
know what they’re testing and why it works. Then come simple steps, an Explorer’s Log to
tick, write or draw what they noticed, and ideas to make each adventure their own.
What’s inside:
17 adventures, most taking just 2 to 10 minutes
A simple three-animal guide to how kids feel: Buzzy Bee, Steady Wombat and Sleepy Koala
Activities for slowing down, waking up, naming feelings, kind self-talk, worries, connection and bedtime
A “Which adventure should I try?” quick-pick page
Check-in charts, an Explorer Menu, an Adventure Stars tracker and a Calm Explorer certificate
Grown-up notes on every activity, plus a guide to supporting your child
Why families and teachers love this kind of book:
Kids can use it on their own, at their own pace
Every activity is optional, so kids can skip or change anything
Easy to share, with a parent, sibling, friend or classmate
Great for home, classrooms and small groups
Good to know: Calm Explorers supports everyday wellbeing. It is not therapy nor a
substitute for professional support, and it includes guidance on when to reach out for more
help.
