Soak In The Sunshine
An Inspiring Journal For Young People
A beautiful gift for any child
Would you like to buy a beautiful gift for your child, or a young person that you know?
Soak In The Sunshine is a journal aimed at 6 to 11 year olds. It is a blank weekly journal Monday-Sunday, for the young person to fill in about their days. There are also sections for them to fill in such as ‘The best part of my personality is…’ ‘The thing that made me laugh this week was…’
What makes it a little different from other Children’s Journals?
The journal also contains quotes FROM young people. There are other journals for children and young people out there, but often they contain quotes from adults – I think we can all agree that quite often young people are smarter and much more insightful about life than us!
Benefits of Soak In The Sunshine Journal for Young People
- Peer advice/inspiration
- Encourage positive mental health
- Reflection on positive attributes and normalising obstacles
- Encourage parent/guardian and child chats
My story
Why did I decide to create the Soak In The Sunshine Journal?
I was undertaking a counselling course and was very interested in mental health, especially that of young people.
I often heard friends and family talk about the amazing things their children had said.
I sometimes wish I could see the world through a child’s eyes. They can be much more smart and sensible about life than us adults!
I often struggled to buy birthday and Christmas presents for my nieces and nephews now they are too old for toys.
