Children will inevitably get upset from time to time. That’s nothing new
to anyone familiar with child behavior. While we must teach children how to
process their emotions in positives ways, sometimes they just need a cool down
period to calm themselves. At times, words can get in the way when trying to
calm an upset child. Changing their environment to one with a quiet, relaxing
feel can help them begin to also change their mood. One tool we love is our Self Color-changing
Egg.
The Self Color-changing Egg is a calming tool that kids find mesmerizing.
This adorable toy slowly changes colors as children watch in relaxed
anticipation. This helps them forget about why they were upset and brings their
emotions, and heart rate, back into control. The soft glowing light slowly cycles
through blue, green, orange, red, and purple in soft tones children love.
Whether for naptime, timeouts, or relaxing upset kiddos, this magical color-changing
egg helps return them back into their mild-mannered selves in no time. This egg
has been shown to provide comfort for children on the autism spectrum, as well,
who find it a soothing sensory toy they can play with anywhere. This is a
cordless toy with included batteries so there is no worry about your child
getting tangled up.
This is a great travel toy and gift idea for birthdays or the holidays. Kids
of all ages and developmental stages will take great joy in this amazing, fun toy
while they inadvertently learn to self-soothe and bring themselves back into a
more calm state of being.
