Mindful Making: Touchstone Bracelets

A new addition to our Mindful Making classes geared for kids grades 2-5, Touchstone Bracelets is all about finding an anchor and bringing it with you wherever you go. In our school-based program, Calm+Kind+Focused, we talk about “finding your anchor” as a mindful tool (something that helps you return to the present). Touchstone Bracelets take that idea and put it into a playful, creative, decorative form. While we pick our touchstones and design our bracelets around them, we will chat about how having anchors and knowing how to use them can help bring us to that all important present, where just for a moment, we can be still even amidst a storm. This class is, most importantly, about having fun and being creative!
