Wellness Walk Kit

Kid tested & teacher approved to support self-awareness and self-management! This 57 piece decal features several options for children to jump, balance and breathe their way through the hallway. Developed by a team of therapists & educators (with plenty of kid input along the way!) children learn to reset feelings and emotions when they need a break and then get ready to learn again!

The path can be used in several ways: one long 40 foot pathway, three separate pathways to offer children choices or even one per hallway. The set also includes 2 sets of wall push ups with guidance to help adults explain how taking a break can help us use our muscles and reset our minds to get ready to learn.

The floor decal features textured surface to provide a better grip for little feet.

*now includes 15 colorful paw prints!

*Wall and floor decals can be permanent OR removeable. Please specify upon ordering.

* Due to increased safety and health precautions as a result of COVID-19, we have replaced the wall push ups in this kit with foot prints!
