About this video
Breathe in, breathe out... 🌼 Feel calm with Granny Hoot, Tamkin, Lila, Bimble, Fenna and little Wobble in a cozy claymation sing-along! Smell the flower, blow the dandelion, squeeze your hands tight and let them go, puff your tummy up like a big balloon and count three, two, one. 🎈
A gentle calm-down song for toddlers and preschoolers: sing it together when big feelings come, or anytime you need a quiet moment. 💛
What your child learns
When we have big feelings, we take a big slow breath to feel calm again.
Lyrics
Big Slow Breath
Big slow breath, big slow breath,
Smell the flower, nice and slow,
Blow the dandelion seeds,
Whoo! And watch them go, go, go!
When I'm grumpy, hot and red,
Take a big slow breath instead!
Squeeze my hands so tight, tight, tight! (tight, tight!)
Let them go and feel all right!
Big slow breath, big slow breath,
Smell the flower, nice and slow,
Blow the dandelion seeds,
Whoo! And watch them go, go, go!
Hands on tummy, one, two, three,
Big balloon, now look at me! (look at me!)
Let it out, three, two, one,
Soft and floppy, just for fun!
Big slow breath, big slow breath,
Smell the flower, nice and slow,
Blow the dandelion seeds,
Whoo! And watch them go, go, go!
Close your eyes and breathe with me,
Still and quiet as can be,
Hug yourself and rock, rock, rock, (rock, rock!)
Gentle as a tick-tock clock.
Big slow breath, big slow breath,
Smell the flower, nice and slow,
Blow the dandelion seeds,
Whoo! And watch them go, go, go!
Big slow breath, and now I smile,
Let's go play a little while!
