Скачать или смотреть The Calm Volcano | 6 Minute Anger Meditation for Kids (Ages 8–11)

Welcome to The Mindful Schoolhouse — a calm and caring space where children can practise mindfulness and guided breathing.

The Calm Volcano is a 6-minute anger meditation for kids aged 8–11. In this guided mindfulness activity, students imagine anger as a volcano — fiery, powerful, and strong. Through slow, cooling breaths, they learn how to release tension, calm down safely, and turn anger into steady strength.

This mindfulness meditation for children teaches practical anger management skills that can be used in the classroom or at home. It supports emotional regulation, focus, and wellbeing, helping students handle frustration, outbursts, or big feelings with calm and confidence.

Perfect for:

Anger management activities for kids
Mindfulness in the classroom
SPHE and wellbeing lessons
SEN or neurodiverse student support
Emotional regulation strategies at home

In this meditation, children will:

Visualise anger as glowing lava inside a volcano
Practise breathing exercises to cool and calm the heat
Experience a mindful pause of stillness
Repeat calming affirmations for strength and control

Affirmations:
I can notice my anger without losing control.
