Materials for regulation and calm

Regulating is the ability to increase or decrease your level of arousal according to what the moment requires. It is not a state that you reach all at once; it is something that is practiced, first with an adult by your side and then increasingly on your own.

What you will find here

Dimmable night lights, music boxes, mobiles, security blankets (doudous) and first plush toys, ceiling projectors, and books about emotions to read together.

The predictable is more calming than the new

The same music, the same light, and the same book at the same time tell the body what comes next. That is why a familiar object works better at night than a novelty, no matter how interesting it may be.

Prepare before, not during

In the middle of a meltdown, it is too late to introduce a new object. These things gain meaning when they are used in good moments, and only then do they serve as an anchor in the bad ones.
