Create Your Own “Slow Spot”
-
Find a small comfy nook in your room—maybe a beanbag, a pile of pillows, or a little chair.
-
Add a blanket or soft cushion and keep a favorite book (or sketchpad) within reach.
-
Whenever you need a break—after school, chores, or screen-time—tuck into your “slow spot” for 5–10 minutes of quiet reading, doodling, or just breathing deeply.
Annotate with Fun Stickers or Colors
-
Like Slomo, who loves to “annotate,” pick up a pack of colorful sticky tabs or erasable highlighters.
-
As you read or study, mark words you like or draw little smiley-face stickers next to ideas you want to remember.
-
It turns learning into a game, and you’ll see your own thoughts pop right off the page!
Mini Baking Break
-
Keep a simple recipe on hand—Slomo’s favorite might be sugar cookies or banana muffins.
-
Choose one small task: mixing batter, rolling dough, or pressing cutters. Let your hands focus on that one step.
-
While the oven’s going, enjoy the warm scent and wash up; then share your treats with a family member or neighbor.
Build a Tech-Helper Habit
-
Slomo uses his built-in tech for good. You can too! Set a gentle timer on a tablet or watch for your “slow spot” breaks or baking steps.
-
Use a free app (or just an alarm) to remind you once a day to pause, stretch, and take five deep breaths—just like Slomo’s calm check-ins.
Random Act of Kindness
-
Every week, pick one tiny thing to do for someone:
-
Leave a happy note on a sibling’s desk.
-
Draw a quick picture and slide it under your neighbor’s door.
-
Help carry groceries or set the table.
-
-
These small gestures are Slomo’s superpower: using quiet kindness to light up someone’s day.
