Frequently Asked Questions
What age is the journal suitable for?
The journal is designed for children aged 6–10, but many older kids (and even parents!) find the activities enjoyable and beneficial.
Is the journal good for schools or groups?
Yes! Teachers, home educators and organisations use it for mindfulness lessons, circle time, or group activities. Multibuy discounts are available for bulk orders.
What kind of paper and cover are used?
Our journals are printed on 170gsm premium bond paper, carefully chosen to handle pencils, markers, and gel pens without bleed-through. Each copy is finished with a durable, high-quality matte cover that protects the pages while giving a soft, premium feel in children’s hands. Made using sustainably sourced paper and send using fully recyclable packaging.
Is there a guarantee or warranty?
Yes. We want you to be completely happy with your purchase. That’s why we offer a 30 day returns policy for individual journal purchases. Journals must be unused and in their original condition. Full details are on our Returns and Refunds page.
Please note that bulk orders of 5 or more copies, or any order placed for resale, are supplied on a firm-sale basis and cannot be returned unless items arrive damaged.
How does the journal help children?
It encourages calm, focus, gratitude, and creativity through fun prompts, exercises, and space to reflect or doodle.
Do children need to write every day?
Not at all. The journal is flexible, kids can use it daily, weekly, or whenever they need a mindful moment.
What makes this journal different from a regular notebook?
It’s filled with guided prompts, breathing exercises, gratitude logs, and drawing spaces, making mindfulness fun, engaging, and easy for kids. Daily activities that help kids reflect on their day and their actions. It includes creative spaces, prompts that support confidence, self-trust and understanding, backed with scientifically proven exercises for the nervous system.
How many times can the journal be used?
The Mindful Explorer journal is designed for one part of a child’s ongoing mindful journey. Once the pages are filled, many families find that the exercises have become part of their child’s daily routine and healthy habits. To continue supporting your child’s growth as they move through different stages of life, repeat orders can be made — giving them a fresh journal to explore, reflect, and grow with.
Is the journal suitable for children under 6 or over 10?
Yes. Children outside the 6–10 range can still benefit, but they may use it differently. Younger children (under 6) may need more guidance from an adult to help with reading prompts or completing activities. Older children (over 10) can use the journal independently and often enjoy reflecting at a deeper level. The core practices, breathing, gratitude, and simple emotional check-ins, are helpful across a wide age range.
