A note from our Founders 💛

Hello SlumberFam,

Today is National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day. As co-founders of Slumberkins, educators and passionate advocates for the emotional well-being of our children, we are so thankful that you have joined us in a movement to transform lives. Let's illuminate the path to better mental wellness for our young ones and the communities that nurture them.

Model Emotional Wellness: In our communities, homes, and schools, every interaction is an opportunity to model emotional health. When we handle stress with calm, resolve conflicts with empathy, and express our feelings openly, we provide children with a living blueprint for emotional success. We invite you to reflect on your own emotional habits and consider how they influence the children in your life.

Inspire and Educate: Dive into our free resources. These tools assist caregivers in furthering children's early emotional learning and understanding of big feelings. Use them at home or share them with your community to spread knowledge and inspire others.

Champion Our Educators: Let's stand with the incredible teachers who dedicate their lives to our children's growth. Reach out with a message of appreciation, share a helpful resource, or simply acknowledge their hard work in a meeting or community forum. Small gestures can uplift spirits and reinforce their indispensable role in shaping future generations. We are offering our annual curriculum hub for FREE with code WELOVEEDUCATORS. Available until tomorrow 5/10 at 11/59pm PT. Pass it along to a teacher in your life!

Join Our Community: The Slumberkins Social on Facebook is an incredible group of like-minded parents, caregivers, teachers, therapists and friends from all over the world. A supportive and judgement-free environment to chat about emotional health for our families and ourselves. You are never alone in parenting with us!

This National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day, let's turn awareness into action and understanding into empowerment. This is more than a single day of observance—it's a lifelong commitment to nurturing the heart and spirit of every child.

Thank you again for being a part of our SlumberFam 💛
