A pausability is taking a pause just for you, to stop and notice what you feel, think, and do.Â
A pause is being in the moment and giving yourself a break. Â
Thereâs no wrong way to pause so itâs hard to make a mistake.
In our increasingly hectic world, even children are often inundated with responsibilities and activities, and end up feeling overwhelmed and stressed. Mindfulness helps focus our attention on the presentâwithout judgment, and without worrying about the past or future. It can help us to enjoy the moments we might normally miss, as well as cope when emotions are hard to handle. We just need to take a pause!
Everyone has the capacity to be mindful, including (especially!) children. A World of Pausabilities is a gentle reminder to stop, take a break, and notice details even as we go about our busy days. Sometimes the simplest moments are the most important onesâif
we donât let them pass us by!
Following a neighborhood on a summer day, readers will learn how to apply mindfulness to simple, everyday moments, and how days are filled with endless possibilities to take a pause.Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers that further discusses mindfulness and ways to introduce pauses into your child's life.

Young children take a pause in their daily routine, including feeling the rays of the sun, listening to the sound of the rain, feeling the sand on the beach, and giving someone they love a hug. - Baker & Taylor
"Children (and adults) live in a fast-paced, demanding and stressful world. It is often difficult to slow-down our children's minds and bodies. This book was written to teach children to take a pause in their lives, to stop activity, to understand quiet time, and to think about what they are doing and where they are going"-- - Lerner Pub Group
