Calming Kit

Have you noticed that your students are coming into school more dysregulated than ever? This Calming Kit is a great addition to your Calming Corner. If you are a parent, do you need some visuals and strategies to help with self-regulation at home? This is for you, too! If you are like me, you have needed to use more co-regulation techniques in your early childhood special education classroom (early elementary, too!). You may wonder, “How can I start teaching my young autistic students/child how to self-regulate?” This calm-down kit has a variety of visual tools to help you get started.

The Calming Kit includes:

► full page size “I Feel” and “I Need” visuals to put on a wall with 12 pictures of basic feelings for the “I Feel” portion, and 36 pictures of choices for the “I Need” portion + an editable page to add your own images!

► visual cue cards to put on a ring with real pictures showing: take deep breaths, blow the pinwheel, blow the dandelion, blow the bubbles, and blow out the candles.

► visual cue cards to put on a ring showing: buzzy bee breaths, snake breathing, dragon breathing, and smell the flower-blow out the candle breathing cue cards.

► editable cue card page to add your own pictures.

► calming kit cover options (one with only the title “calming kit”, one with the title and a rainbow, and one that says “calming kit” with a square editable picture to add your own image).

► small and medium size “I Feel – I Need” cue cards with emotions and general choices on them.

► 2 calming sequences with 3 simple steps + an editable calming sequence so you can add your own pictures and text.

► 2 visual cue cards showing “blow 5 times” + an editable version.
