In this episode of the Playful Connection Podcast, Eddie Shin will share four  simple and practical tips on mindful activities that can be applied today.

1. Create a Daily “Pause” Moment
2. Turn Everyday Activities into Mindful Experiences
3. Use Movement as Mindfulness
4. Encourage Mindful Storytelling or Journaling

Practicing mindfulness with children and teens is like tending a campfire. At first, the fire may flicker and struggle to catch, but with steady attention—adding small twigs of presence, kindling of awareness, and oxygen of patience—the flames grow stronger. Over time, this fire becomes a warm, steady source of connection, offering light and comfort in your relationship. Even when life gets busy or stressful, those small moments of mindful presence keep the fire burning, reminding children and teens that they are seen, valued, and deeply connected to you.
