Wooden Mindful Maze Set

The Wooden Mindful Maze Set is a set of double-sided breathing boards designed to help students practice mindfulness, focus, and emotional regulation. Featuring six different wooden finger paths, each board guides students through relaxing breathing techniques, promoting self-awareness and calmness. These mazes are ideal for navigating emotions and encouraging quiet focus, making them a perfect tool for classroom mindfulness exercises. The set includes a Getting Started Guide to help teachers incorporate these activities effectively. Each board measures 16.5cm square.

Benefits:
This set supports emotional and mental well-being by offering students a tactile, visual way to practice mindfulness and deep breathing. It enhances focus, reduces anxiety, and promotes calmness, which can improve concentration and behaviour in the classroom. The use of finger paths provides a hands-on approach to mindfulness, helping children connect physical movement with breathing to navigate their emotions. These boards also promote fine motor skills as students trace the paths.

Classroom Ideas:

• Mindfulness Breaks: Use the mazes during transitions or as a calming activity when students need to refocus or relax.
• Breathing Techniques: Encourage students to trace the paths while practising deep, slow breathing, helping them develop self-regulation and reduce stress.
• Emotional Awareness: Ask students to use the mazes to reflect on their feelings and practice calming techniques when they're feeling overwhelmed or anxious.
• Group Mindfulness Sessions: Incorporate the mazes into group mindfulness exercises where students can share their experiences and feelings after using the boards.
