Description of project:
Our class 20A02 conducted a 1-hr session (“Keeping Calm with Calmoo”) on mindfulness for the kindergarten kids of PCF Sparkletots Potong Pasir. With the help of our friendly mascot Calmoo, the Cow of Calm, we taught the kids how to use their EARS, VOICES and BODIES to listen carefully and relax.
In ‘LISTEN with us’, we played a game of ‘Calmoo Says’ (modelled after Simon Says) where the kids had to listen carefully for instructions and follow them.
In ‘SING with us’, we taught them a rewritten version of ‘Old Macdonald Had A Farm’ that had lyrics about patience, attention and focus.
In the most fun segment, ‘MOVE with us’, we taught them some simple yoga breathing exercises and poses that they can use to calm and relax their bodies.
All in all, it was a fun morning and we learnt a lot from the kids’ enthusiasm for learning!
