🦊🦆🦜 Noticing the Little Things
Featured Story
✨ A gentle adventure about finding calm through the senses.
Join Finn the Fox, Delaney the Duck, and Micah the Macaw in Noticing the Little Things — a quiet forest journey about slowing down, using the senses, and discovering calm in everyday moments.
When Finn feels nervous about meeting new friends and exploring new places, Micah invites him to notice what’s around him — the tickle of grass beneath his paws, the shimmer of sunlight, the sound of a waterfall nearby. With each mindful step, Finn learns that paying attention to the present helps nervous thoughts drift away, making space for curiosity and courage.
This softly illustrated story supports children (ages 4–9) in developing mindfulness skills inspired by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Through sensory exploration, reflection, and gentle forest imagery, kids learn how small moments of noticing can create big feelings of calm and connection.
Included in this resource:
🌿 10-page printable story with engaging comprehension and reflection questions.
📘 3-page Guide for Adults with simple ways to adapt the story for mindful movement, group check-ins, and classroom routines — to deepen learning and make mindfulness fun.
🦊 3-page set of sequencing cards (image + text versions) to help kids retell the story and explore their own emotions.
✨ Total: 16 pages
Perfect for parents, educators, and therapists, Noticing the Little Things helps children discover that peace often begins with the smallest moments — one mindful breath, one kind observation, one calm step at a time.
