Kids Can Use Headspace, Too
Headspace is not only a haven for adults seeking mindfulness but also a valuable resource for children and parents alike. The app features dedicated sections designed to cater to the specific needs of young minds.
The "Kids and Parents" section is a treasure trove of content, ideal for children struggling with focus or separation anxiety. To ensure a restful night's sleep, there's an entire sleep section tailored to help kids peacefully drift off to dreamland.
Within this sleep section, you'll discover enchanting sleepcasts featuring beloved Sesame Street characters, providing a comforting and familiar bedtime routine for children. Parents aren't left out either; they can join the wind-down sessions, creating a tranquil bedtime environment for the whole family.
For a delightful blend of entertainment and mindfulness, "Find Your Force," an animated show in collaboration with Star Wars, aims to instill well-being and resilience in children. Headspace ensures that children have access to tools that promote not only peaceful sleep but also emotional well-being and resilience.
