Add cards with your own photos for family members, favourite toys and places. CALM CORNER A breathing circle, a visual countdown timer and a five-level feelings thermometer with a gentle tip for each level. Made for the moments when things get too much. PLAY & LEARN Find-the-pair memory, feelings faces and sort-by-colour games designed with clear, predictable rules. Results are saved so you can see progress.
