What if there was a way for parents to help your kids calm down, get ready for bed and go to sleep without a fuss, so they could sleep better, feel better and not so tired in the morning?

What if there was a way for parents to feel more confident in teaching your children how to regulate their emotions, with support from their child’s teacher?

The Quiet Time Program is a three-tiered program for children, parents and teachers that is designed to do just that.

The Quiet Time Meditation videos use evidence-based practices, such as repetitive rhythms, calming melodies, beautiful pictures and guided meditations. Listeners will be immersed in nature and experience it from a new perspective.

The meditations guide listeners into imagining the world as if they were an animal in their natural environment. There are facts about life cycles and habitat mixed with character concepts and esteem-building affirmations. The series starts with the caterpillar so listeners experience nature from the ground up and imagine crawling through the grass and savoring the delights of the garden. Butterfly teaches us to embrace the changes that make us beautiful and to shine our light in the world. Feel wise, strong and powerful as you soar with the eagles and run with the wolves and then connect to your intuition, insight and to the earth with the sea turtle and bat. There are audio only files included for those times when you need a break from the screens.

Quiet Time Parents will receive an email every day for 6 weeks with links to materials and Parents Notes videos that are sent 5 days a week. These short videos offer support and guidance for parents with information about how to use different aspects of the program, techniques to teach your kids to calm their brains and bodies, while building self-esteem and positive mental health practices.

Quiet Time Teachers can support STEM learning in an arts-based format in the classroom with a complete course curriculum. This will support positive parenting techniques and help children and families stay engaged in the program materials.
