Does your child struggle with calming down?

  • Pause with Panda teaches children to take a Pause to pay attention to their thoughts, feelings and bodies

  • By practicing taking a Pause, children learn to become responsive rather than reactive to how they feel

We created Pause with Panda to give children a
screen-free tool that helps them learn to take a Pause
