  • Easy for little hands to hold and follow
  • A simple tool for quieter, more mindful moments
  • Compact enough to use at home or on the go
  • Perfect for ages 3+

Some call it a breathing ball, others a breath ball. We call it the Mindfulness Magic Ball.

As your child breathes in slowly, they gently pull the ball open. As they breathe out, they let it close. Watching it grow and shrink gives them a simple rhythm to follow with their eyes and hands, turning slow breathing into something they can see.

Designed in our signature soft colour palette, it is perfect for home, the classroom or a calm corner, and once one comes out, everybody wants a turn.

〰️ Makes slow breathing easy to see and follow

〰️ Gives busy hands and eyes one thing to focus on

〰️ Fun for the whole family, at home or in the classroom

  • Suitable for ages 3+

How does the Mindfulness Magic Ball work?

Children use the Mindfulness Magic Ball by slowly expanding it to its full size as they inhale deeply through their nose, then contracting it back to a smaller size as they exhale through their mouth. This physical movement paired with breathing helps them learn the rhythm of deep breathing.

At what age can children start using the Mindfulness Magic Ball?

The Mindfulness Magic Ball is suitable for children aged 3 and up, as well as for adults. It's a simple, user-friendly tool that can be used by anyone looking to enhance their mindful breathing practices.

Who is the Mindfulness Magic Ball for?

Every child. Slow, steady breathing is a useful everyday skill, and the Magic Ball turns it into something children can see and follow with their hands. Adults love it too.

A simple way to teach mindful breathing

The Mindfulness Magic Ball gives children a visual, hands-on way to practise slow breathing by following the ball as it opens and closes.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT

WHY VISUAL BREATHING CUES CAN HELP

Breathing can feel abstract for children. A simple visual rhythm gives them something concrete to watch, follow and practise.

01

VISUAL CUES MAKE IT EASIER TO FOLLOW

Watching the ball expand and contract gives children a clear signal for when to breathe in and breathe out.

02

MOVEMENT GIVES THEIR ATTENTION A PLACE TO LAND

Following the ball with their eyes and hands creates one simple point of focus during the breathing exercise.

03

SLOWER BREATHING CREATES A GENTLER RHYTHM

Moving the ball slowly encourages the practice itself to feel unhurried and intentional.

FROM A SIMPLE BREATH TO A PRACTICE THEY CAN MAKE THEIR OWN

THE HEART BEHIND IT

From one parent to another

After experiencing postnatal depression, Jacqueline began looking more deeply at mindfulness and emotional wellbeing for herself and her daughter.

What stayed with her was that mindfulness did not have to feel complicated. Sometimes the simplest tools can make an idea easier to understand, especially for children who are still learning what it means to slow down and notice their breath.

“Mindfulness can begin with something as simple as one breath, one movement and one moment of attention.”

That thinking sits behind the Mindfulness Magic Ball. Jacqueline wanted to turn breathing into something children could actually see, hold and follow, making mindful breathing feel more approachable, playful and easy to practise together.

My daughter uses a similar one in her yoga class at school. This is the first one of these that I have seen that isn't in bright primary colours. My kids love it, and it has stood up to a lot of play.

Magic!

This ball works for my toddler in so many ways. She uses it to breathe and also takes time out to just watch it grow and shrink. She rolls it, throws it on a soft surface to watch its effects. It’s an amazing tool

Instant hit!

My 2.5year old daughter instantly took to this breathing ball. Inhaling as she expanded it and exhaling as she contracted it. She loved it and has spontaneously picked it up and done mindful breathing over the past couple of days (it’s been Christmas so either it’s been entertaining or she’s using it as a regulation tool- either or both is wonderful!) I was surprised at how quickly she loved it! Thank you X

Absolutely love the mindfulness magic ball! I purchased it for my daughter for Christmas and the care in the packaging and delivery was above expectation to keep the item in one piece. The colours are more beautiful than I imagined and I can’t wait for her to open it up! Love it! 😌

Love it.

I’m surprised at how much my 3yo daughter loves her magic ball. As she sees this used at her pre-school during yoga class, she teaches me how to use her magic ball to do slow deep breaths.

If I had to critique about the magic ball it would be that there are some prickly bits to it, so playing catch with it would not be ideal. With that said, my toddler doesn’t mind it. She still plays with it however she sees fit.

Both our baby and toddler love this, and it’s been a great way to explain breathing and ‘show’ how lungs expand and contract…great lead into learning about basic anatomy.

Love the colors!

I used this ball to practice breathing with my yoga pre-k students. They love to expand the magic ball as they inhale and close it as they exhale.
