This printable Mindful Listening worksheet is a gentle and engaging activity designed to help children slow down, focus on the present moment, and connect with the world around them through sound. It encourages children to sit quietly, notice the sounds they can hear—like birds, cars or voices—and either draw or write what they notice inside a fun frog-themed bubble template.
Mindful listening helps children improve concentration, reduce anxiety, and become more aware of their environment and emotions. It is a great way to introduce mindfulness in a simple and accessible way, especially for younger children or those new to calming techniques.
Perfect for use in:
-
Primary schools and early years settings
-
Wellbeing sessions or nurture groups
-
One-to-one support with anxious or overwhelmed children
-
Home learning or family wellbeing activities
-
Emotional regulation corners or calm-down spaces
This child-friendly mindfulness resource is free to use and share, as long as it remains unaltered, and is ideal for social workers, teachers, therapists, and parents supporting kid’s emotional wellbeing.
