“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.”
— Proverbs 22:6 —
Your four-year-old is biting her brother again…
Your six-year-old can’t fall asleep because she keeps thinking about tomorrow…
Your three-year-old is on the floor screaming because his cup is the wrong color…
They don’t have the words or tools to calm themselves yet, and you don’t have a screen-free way to teach them. So you’re stuck, wondering if there’s a better way to help them than just white-knuckling through every tantrum?
Yep, there is a better way.
Through the wisdom of the saints and the science of emotional regulation, we’re giving little ones the skills to calm their bodies and speak kindly to themselves. So they don’t have to be 24, 34, or 44 years old before they learn how.
Dominic breathes fire when he gets angry, and in this tale that fire comes OUT.
Hildegard the Owl helps him understand what’s happening in his body and teaches him to breathe deeply to cool the flames.
Your little one will learn a calming catchphrase for anger and practice it with a guided track they can use the next time their own “fire” starts building.
When a task feels impossible and your child wants to give up or explode, this story walks them through what frustration feels like in their body and how to keep going.
It equips them with an easy support prayer: “St. Joseph, help me be a good worker.” A companion practice track helps them work through real moments of frustration with patience and prayer.
Getting dropped off at CCD/Atrium or somewhere new without Mom can feel terrifying for a little one.
This story gently names that fear and gives kids tools to feel brave, along with the reassurance that Jesus is always with them. The practice track is designed for those real-life goodbye moments.
Cecilia gets SO excited that she talks over her friends and can’t stop chattering. This story (with no shaming!) teaches kids how to notice when they’re taking over and how to listen well.
It’s about celebrating their enthusiasm while building the skill of making space for others.
Every track comes ready to listen your way: play from the CCK app, stream the private podcast to a bluetooth speaker, or download the .mp3 files for your YOTO or Tonie for completely screen-free listening!
NEW! The CCK App is perfect for listening on the go and streaming at home.
Four soothing bedtime stories are included, designed to wind little ones down at the end of the day.
Marie the Mouse & the Quiet Night. Marie is scared by little noises in the quiet of her room at bedtime. This story gently walks kids through nighttime fears with the comfort of faith.
All four tales are calm, lovely stories simply meant to help your child drift peacefully off to sleep.
The series also includes MP3s of beloved Catholic prayers — the St. Michael Prayer, the Guardian Angel Prayer, the Our Father, and more — so your child can listen and learn to pray along.
Perfect for car rides, quiet time, or bedtime routines.
Who am I?
That couldn’t possibly be how God wanted me to live out my vocation of motherhood. So I learned how to enjoy the day-to-day life of mothering, and a lot of it came down to emotional regulation — understanding how feelings worked in my body and how I could calm myself down when the big feelings hit.
Ten years ago, I started teaching these skills to Catholic moms. And immediately, they asked: “How can we teach these skills to our kids so they don’t have to wait until adulthood to learn this?”
So I finally did it. Calm Catholic Kids is my answer: fun audio adventure stories that teach emotional regulation skills to kids ages 3-7, rooted in Catholic faith.
Each story has a learning track for when they’re calm, and a practice track for when they’re in the middle of a big feeling. Because the best time to teach a skill is BEFORE the meltdown and the best time to practice it is DURING one.
Just wanted to say thanks for your product, literally rescued our day!
My son really didn’t want to go to our co-op this morning and I played the one about being scared and he got ready painlessly — and even at bed time, instead of getting out of bed 7 times, he fell asleep listening to a deliciously calming but Catholic bedtime story.
The practice for the story is great too cause it both helps him as well as coaches me on what to say to help him! Thanks so much!
“I gave her the bedtime stories to listen to and it seemed to have worked!”
I just put the tracks on a Yoto card this past weekend and the kids have enjoyed listening. My 8 year old daughter came downstairs after putting her to bed last night and said she had too much energy to fall asleep. I gave her the bedtime stories to listen to and it seemed to have worked! Thank you!
“I love all your work and it’s been a blessing to me and my family.”
I LOVE them! They calm me down too when I put them on before naptime. I’m still working on putting them on the Yoto but they’ve already been super helpful. Your no-yelling webinar was super eye opening to me. Thank you. I love all your work and it’s been a blessing to me and my family.
“We heard him whispering “Jesus, I trust in You” and taking slow deep breaths.”
We listened to Marie and the Quiet Night before bed. Instead of hearing our 6yo calling for us later because he was scared, we heard him whispering “Jesus, I trust in You” and taking slow deep breaths. He put himself to sleep without worrying himself scared (and I got an uninterrupted evening with my husband). AMAZING.
“It was such a sweet little moment.”
I bought the stories and I have listened to most of them with my “spicy” 5 year old son. I am trying to work with him on the angry outbursts, so the first one resonated.
He started swimming lessons about a week after listening to the little mouse one, so when it was time to go, we practiced the wrist movement and remembering “Jesus is with me.” When he was at the edge of the pool waiting for his turn, we caught eyes and I rubbed my wrist, and he smiled and imitated. It was such a sweet little moment.
Your calm, slow voice gives me an example to imitate too. It was a lightbulb moment to realize I can speak slowly and calmly and it can calm me AND my son down.
“Seeing him breathe in the cool air and blow out the fire and repeat “Jesus I trust in you” is just short of a miracle.”
My 3 and 4 year old boys LOVE the stories! My youngest of four boys is proving to be our most challenging kiddo and he’s three which is already a tough age. He is super persistent and has a very hard time calming down when he is upset. Seeing him breathe in the cool air and blow out the fire and repeat “Jesus I trust in you” is just short of a miracle.
My 4 year old begs to go to sleep listening to the manger story before bed. “Ms. Sterling” has quickly become a household name and your stories are the Yoto cards they now reach for most.
Couldn’t be happier and have recommended them to our preschool buddies and Bible Study mom’s group. Thank you again for such awesome content for our kids!
“Popped the Dominic dragon calm down story on for my tantruming 5yo gal… worked like a charm! And she asked for another one!”
