Tip Tapping is a guided meditation for kids, that requires a bit of assistance from a grown-up. It's a story I tell my son when he can’t sleep at night, when he’s scared or anxious or just has an abundance of maniacal energy. There’s a lot of room for improvisation, but I’ve shared the framework along with a recording of the story, in case you’d like to try it out.Basically, a grown-up tip-taps their fingers as if they’re little legs, on all the parts of the child’s body that the story mentions. It can be silly and a lot of fun and it also helps to call my son’s attention back from all his video games and friends and other worldly stuff, and back into his body where he can feel like he’s home, safe and comfortable.(Suitable for ages 2-10.)Tip Tapping was written by Jessica Laurel Kane; music by Jerome Rossen at Freshmade Music.New episodes every Wednesday!For illustrations, episode transcripts, children’s books and more, visit www.onceuponanupset.com.
