Lots of children (and adults) find creating a zen garden relaxing and regulating! You will need:

– a tray / shallow container

– sand

– small items (could be real leaves, grass, twigs, or garden minatures are available from Amazon)

-“rakes” to smooth and craeet patterns in the sand (also available from Amazon or you could use kitchen utensils)

Sitting with your child and creating your own gardens together can be a great co-regulating activity ❤️
