“My Happy Place” – A Printable Calming Activity for Children

Help your child discover their inner calm and build emotional resilience with our “My Happy Place” printable activity. Created by psychologists at My Psychology Ireland, this simple yet powerful tool supports children in using imagination and sensory awareness to regulate big feelings like anxiety and overwhelm.
 
Children are guided to explore what their happy place looks like, smells like, feels like, and contains — all while using creativity to build a safe mental space they can “visit” whenever they need comfort or calm.
 
This activity is perfect for use at home, in the classroom, or in therapy sessions — and it’s a gentle, practical way to introduce children to coping skills that last a lifetime.
