🌿 Welcome to Acceptance Acres
Meet the animal friends who bring mindfulness and ACT skills to life.
In Acceptance Acres, every animal has a story — and a skill — to share.
Together, they help kids (and grown-ups) learn to notice thoughts, make space for feelings, and take kind, steady steps toward what matters most.
🦊 Explore the forest and meet Finn, Delaney, and their friends as they turn big ideas into gentle, everyday lessons.
🌳 Our Forest Story
Acceptance Acres is a forest filled with warmth, wonder, and wisdom — a place where mindfulness takes root.
Here, each creature teaches a different way to handle life’s ups and downs — through curiosity, courage, and compassion.
This magical land reminds us that learning emotional skills doesn’t have to feel like “work.”
It can feel like walking a forest path — one calm step at a time.
🦋 Meet the ACT Friends
Each friend in Acceptance Acres represents a core ACT skill:
When kids (and adults) meet these friends, ACT becomes a living adventure — not just an idea.
