Transitions, separating from loved ones, or being apart - even just for a little while - can feel tricky. That’s where Lumi the Loving Mermaid comes in!
This real letter from Lumi the mermaid, delivered by ‘snail mail’ straight to your child’s post box, helps them feel reassured, connected, and comforted when they miss their grown-up / are experiencing separation anxiety. Written by an Early Childhood Educator in consultation with a psychologist, this beautifully crafted undersea story validates your child’s emotions, letting them know that all their feelings are okay. Lumi shares her own experience of missing her mer-grown-up and teaches children a magical coping strategy - their very own 'Pearls of Comfort'!
Children can wear and press their 'Pearl of Comfort' sticker to send a cuddle 'through the ocean' and their grown-up can do the same to send one right back! It’s a gentle, interactive way to help children feel close, even when they’re in different places.
