What to Do

Find two bodies of water:

• one still (pond, bowl of water, puddle, calm lake)

• one moving (stream, hose trickle, water poured slowly)

Have children watch both for a few minutes.
Invite them to gently drop a leaf or small stick into each.

What Children Notice

• Still water reflects clearly

• Moving water ripples and distorts

• Both are still water — just in different states

Peace Connection

Peace does not mean feelings disappear.

Peace means learning how to slow the movement inside so things become clearer.

Child truth:

“I can slow down and see clearly.”
