Creating a Calm Down Corner
A fun and creative training that will help you better understand children — and equip them to regulate their emotions and feel secure in their environments.
A Safe Space for Big Feelings
A calm down corner is a designated space in a home or classroom which is designed with the sole intention of being a safe space for a child to go to when they feel their emotions are running too high and they need to regain their emotional and physical control.
A calm down corner is equipped with comforting objects and soothing materials that can promote mindfulness, breathing, and reflection.
This 40-minute training is designed for parents, caregivers, teachers, and school personnel — and is free for parents, teachers, and caregivers in Palm Beach County thanks to our community supporters.
