The magic of THE Imaginarium & CREATIVE MIND JOURNEYS
Our mission is to bring all the proven benefits of mindfulness to kids aged 6-10 in a super fun, engaging way. So we're building a mindfulness ecosystem that kids will actually want to use on their own.
Enter Kidevolve’s Imaginarium & Creative Mind Journeys - now on Apple Podcasts and YouTube.
Our Creative Mind Journeys™ are first-of-their kind audio stories that mix music, sound fx, incredible voice talent and pure whimsy to deliver highly imaginative tales that double as smart guided practices. Each story addresses a different challenge or opportunity, helping kids strengthen their aptitudes for an underlying psycho-social-emotional skill. This way, kids can become big-hearted mental ninjas, serene floating tortoise shells as they drift off to sleep, and resilient wave-riding dudes who can take things in stride… and go on to lead their best lives.
“Adult-centered mindfulness approaches - simplified or shortened - are just not the right approach for MOST kids. Kids need their OWN materials - a wholly kid-centered, FUN-FILLED path into mindfulness training.
-Founder, Kirsten Chase

NOTES TO ADULT MOTIVATORS
Yes, it’s up to you to make the first CMJ introductions. Find a quiet space and turn off all distractions. Have fun reviewing our course categories and making choices with kids about which tracks to explore. We recommend listening together the first few times, so you can discuss themes and feelings before and afterwards. Then stand back and watch in amazement as kids request our CMJs all on their own (with absolutely no arm-bending from the adults in their lives).
