On Ahway Island®, children experience an inclusive world. Our mission is to help all kids accept, appreciate, and love all beautiful differences, in both themselves and others.
Our stories and meditations teach the importance of kindness, inclusion, acceptance, empathy, gratitude, curiosity, appreciation, emotional intelligence, and self-regulation. Our characters model these values and provide examples of positive behaviors that children can emulate in their own lives with confidence. We incorporate teaching of self-soothing techniques to empower children to manage their own emotions.
Since 2017, Be Calm on Ahway Island® podcast has provided short and soothing episodes designed to help kids wind down for bedtime or naptime. Each episode includes a kid-friendly meditation followed by an original story with a positive message. Our short (15-25 minute) episodes feature the gentle, everyday adventures of our many lovable and relatable characters, including a diverse group of curious kids, friendly animals, helpful vehicles, enthusiastic toys and tools, and our beloved and mysterious Dragon! With over 600 episodes, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!
