## What is Meditations for Kids?

Think back to your childhood: wouldn't it have been wonderful to learn how to relax and stay calm in stressful situations when you were growing up?  

You can give your children this gift by meditating with them. If you're new to meditation, it may be intimidating at first, but don't worry - your child is likely a natural. When it comes to learning the art of meditation and guided imagery, children may truly have an advantage over adults - unbridled, beautiful imaginations.  

Customize with natural sounds and 10 helpful meditations including:
* Breathing Relaxation for Kids
* Worry and Anxiety
* Deal With Everyday Stress
* Decrease Fidgeting
* Afraid of the Dark
* Calm and Centered

This is good news for anyone interested in teaching their children how to relax and stay calm in stressful situations; skills they can carry well into adulthood. Meditation is something everyone in the family can benefit from practicing, and it's something you can do together. 

What is Meditation, Mindfulness & Guided Imagery?

Meditation produces a deep state of relaxation and a tranquil mind. When you meditate, you focus your attention and eliminate the stream of jumbled thoughts that may be crowding your mind and causing stress. 

Some research suggests that meditation may help people manage anxiety disorders, depression, high blood pressure, pain and sleep problems. 

There are also emotional benefits of meditation, including: 
* Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
* Building skills to manage your stress
* Increasing self-awareness
* Focusing on the present
* Reducing negative emotions

Mindfulness is a form of meditation rooted in spiritual teachings in which you focus your full attention on the present moment. You acknowledge what you feel and experience, and accept it, without judgment or criticism.

Recent studies indicate that children who practice mindfulness show:

* 24% increase in positive social behaviors
* 24% decrease in aggression
* 15% improvement in math scores
* Reduction and prevention of depression-like symptoms
* Improved classroom behavior, including self control, paying attention and showing respect for others


Guided imagery is a way to access the images of the unconscious mind to help resolve problems and to gain greater insights and deeper understanding regarding a specific illness, issue, or situation. It may or may not be interactive and it usually uses prompted or suggested imagery. 

Please note: In some cases, meditation can worsen symptoms associated with certain mental and physical health conditions. Be sure to consult your health care provider before meditating if you or your family members have any of these conditions.

As a key exercise in the mastery of meditation you will find that repetition brings a higher sense of peace and security.

### 5/5 — Kids love it

*2022-02-25*

It’s a beautiful way to introduce kids to meditation. Thank you!

### 5/5 — .

*2020-04-14*

..

### 4/5 — Good for relaxing kids

*2019-09-05*

My four and ten year old both liked this app and it really helped them relax. I wish the meditation would keep playing while using other apps or with locked screen.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2018-10-22*

My 4 year old loves this app. It is really easy for her to navigate by herself. The meditations are pleasant to listen to, and you can select a background sound to go with it. She usually listens to 2 meditations before bed and falls asleep right away afterward (she has always had a ton of trouble falling asleep).

### 5/5 — 👍

*2018-08-07*

This app is really good well worth 99p

### 3/5 — Displaying meditation time would be so useful

*2018-06-17*

I tried one of the guided meditations but had to stop it since I had no idea how long each one was. I enjoyed it but need to have the elapsed/remaining time displayed. Let me know when that feature is added.

### 3/5 — Netflix

*2018-05-21*

Yo no compré ese juego o película solamente Netflix así q por favor devolver el dinero y a Netflix q avise antes de cobrar ya q no he autorizado a descontar de la cuenta sin antes preguntar estamos.

### 3/5 — Doesn't play in the background

*2017-02-11*

My kid really likes this meditation app, but I find it extremely frustrating that it won't continue to play with the screen locked!

### 5/5 — Beautiful artwork, lovely guided relaxation for younger kids

*2016-10-18*

My daughter really enjoys Cosmic Kids Yoga on YouTube and this is a similar style. While the pace of the narration is more energetic than I'm used to for meditation and sometimes it feels more like storytime, I can see why the style works well for younger kids.  Even my older son who's 10 still enjoyed it and wanted to do it again.

I listen to it together with my kids so I didn't have the problem the other reviewer had with kids calling out when the audio finished.

The interface visuals are rich and beautiful and create a very appealing ambience that is also very easy for kids to explore themselves.

### 2/5 — Not well designed

*2016-10-09*

Poorly designed. Can't set how long relaxation sounds go for. Should be able to go from lady talking to a relaxation sound. Instead it just stops and children then call out in bed as their mediation had stopped. Defeats the purpose.
