ATTENTION: parents & teachers
Help Children Start Their New School With Happy, Calm Confidence
The emotional toolkit every child needs to feel safe, seen, and supported as they step into their next chapter.
INTRO FOR PARENTS & TEACHERS
Starting a new school is a big deal — and not just for children. Whether you're a parent waving at the school gate or a teacher welcoming new pupils, that transition period can be filled with nerves, excitement, and "what if" thoughts.
The School Transition Calm Kit is your ready-to-go emotional wellbeing companion — packed with child-led meditations, printable tools, classroom activities, and daily rituals designed to support calm, confidence, and connection.
Let’s help children settle in strong and steady — from the inside out.
Why School Transition Support Matters:
Over 70% of children experience anxiety when changing schools
Transitions can trigger fear, overwhelm, and self-doubt - especially without structured emotional support.
Emotional wellbeing is directly linked to academic success
Children who feel calm and connected learn better, focus more, and adapt faster to new environments.
Early support builds long-term confidence and resilience
Giving children practical tools now means they carry calm strategies into every future change.
Most schools focus on logistics — not emotional readiness
While uniforms, timetables, and buildings are covered, many children need help with the inner transition too - and that’s where we come in.

Frequently Asked Questions
Schools: What year groups is this suitable for?
This Calm Kit supports children moving into Year 7, or from primary to middle school in 3-tier education systems. It’s also used by some Year 5 or Year 6 classes preparing early.
Schools: Do I need to be trained in mindfulness to use it?
Not at all. The resources are fully guided — with videos, printables, and scripts ready to go. No training or prior knowledge needed.
Schools: Is it tech-based or printable?
You get both! The digital course includes audio meditations and printable PDFs, all ready to download or access online.
Schools : How long does it take to deliver?
Just 10–15 minutes a day is all you need. Use it across a week, or stretch it across the transition term.
Parents: My child is nervous but won’t talk about it. Will this still help?
Absolutely. This Calm Kit includes tools that don’t rely on talking — like meditations, breathing exercises, and journaling prompts. Children often open up gently when they feel safe and supported — and that’s what this kit is all about.
Parents: I’ve never used mindfulness or meditation before. What if I get it wrong?
There’s no right or wrong here. Everything is guided — just press play and follow along. Even a few minutes a day can make a big difference. It’s about connection, not perfection.
Parents: My child doesn’t like writing. Will they use the journal?
They don’t have to write much! The journal can be used to draw, colour, or just sit and reflect. It’s flexible, gentle, and designed to meet children where they’re at.
Parents: Is this worth the £19?
We’ve packed this Calm Kit with everything we wish we’d had as parents during school transitions. For less than the cost of a takeaway, you’re giving your child lifelong tools to handle change, anxiety, and emotions - all delivered in a relatable, child-led way.
How long does it take to use each day?
Just 5-10 minutes (or more if desired)! Whether it’s a morning boost, bedtime meditation, or a calm moment after school — you can use the kit in a way that fits your family.
Parents: Can I use this with more than one child?
Yes! Access to the online course lasts for 4 months from the date of purchase. However, You’ll get printable resources that can be reused or reprinted. Listen to the audio meditations together. It’s a great tool for siblings or the whole family to use.

Integrating mindfulness and positive psychology interventions to support children to shine through their school transitions - and beyond.
"At MiniMe Mindfulness®, we’ve combined expertise in education, emotional wellbeing, mindfulness and positive psychology to create innovative, child-friendly resources that genuinely make a difference.
Our in-person and digital courses are trusted by families, schools, and nurseries across the UK - delivering powerful tools that support children, parents, and educators alike.
What makes us different?
We believe that emotional wellbeing isn’t a ‘nice-to-have’ — it’s a must-have during key milestones like starting a new school. That’s why we created the Calm Kits: to offer simple, practical, and evidence-based strategies that actually work.
Our Mentoring 4 Kids by Kids® approach lets children learn from relatable peer voices — because sometimes the most powerful encouragement comes from someone just like you.
These kits aren’t just easing transitions — they’re creating a positive ripple effect for families, classrooms, and communities.
Thank you for being part of the movement.
