Tools And Resources

At Missy, we believe that stories are just the beginning. The real magic happens in everyday life — in conversations, reflections, and small moments of connection between children and the adults who care for them.

This page offers simple, gentle tools to help families deepen the lessons of Missy Finds the Magic Within and support children in discovering their own inner magic.

Conversation Starters

Use these questions after reading Missy together:

What do you think Missy felt at the start of her day?
When have you felt a little unsure like Missy?
What makes you feel brave?
What do you love most about being you?
Where do you feel your “inner magic” in your body — your heart, tummy, or mind?

These questions help children build emotional awareness and confidence in sharing their feelings.

The Inner Magic interactive I check (for kids and parents also. )

A simple daily or weekly reflection you can do together:

Ask your child:

Today I felt… (happy, worried, excited, calm, brave, unsure)
Something kind I did was…
Something I’m proud of is…
My inner magic showed up when…

You can write this down, draw pictures, or simply talk about it at dinner or bedtime.

Calm & Courage Tool

When your child feels overwhelmed, try this together:

Take three slow breaths
Place a hand on your heart
Say:
“I am safe. I am brave. I am enough.”

This mirrors Missy’s journey of pausing, feeling, and finding strength within.

Kindness Challenge

Encourage your child to practise their magic through kindness:

Say something kind to themselves in the mirror
Share with a friend
Help tidy up without being asked

You can celebrate their acts of kindness at the end of the week.

Missy Reflection Activity

Ask your child to draw:

Missy
The glowing light inside her
Then draw their own inner magic

Ask them to explain what their magic looks like and what it helps them do.

Missy Affirmations — A Little Magic for Every Day

Words are powerful. They shape how children see themselves, how they feel, and how they move through the world.

These gentle affirmations are inspired by Missy Finds the Magic Within. They are designed to help children build confidence, emotional awareness, kindness, and a strong sense of self.

You can read them together in the morning, before school, at bedtime, or whenever your child needs a reminder of their inner magic.

Affirmations for Children

Say them slowly. Breathe. Feel the words in your heart.

I am kind to myself and others.

I am brave, even when I feel scared.

My feelings are important.

I am enough, just as I am.

My heart is full of magic.

I can try again when things are hard.

I am unique and that is my superpower.

I speak kindly to myself.

I am safe in my body and my mind.

I trust myself.

My voice matters.

A Gentle Reflection for Parents

Here are three simple ways parents can use them:

Choose one affirmation each morning before school and repeat it together three times.

Mirror Moment

Have your child stand in front of a mirror and say one affirmation while looking at themselves.

Bedtime Blessing

Read one affirmation at bedtime as a gentle way to close the day.

Create Your Own Missy Affirmation

“My magic is …”

Examples they might say:

“My magic is being kind.”
