For kids who feel everything

Calm they can reach for, any time of day.

Some kids need more help settling, at bedtime, after school, in the middle of a big feeling. Zenimal gives them a calm voice and a button they press themselves. No screen, nothing to scroll.

Not only for bedtime.

A calm practice works best when it's part of the whole day, so it's familiar when things get hard.

  1. Before school

    One slow breath before shoes and the car.

  2. In class

    A calm corner they can use without asking. Zenimal is in classrooms too.

  3. After school

    A few quiet minutes, so the day doesn't spill over at dinner.

  4. Before homework

    A short practice to settle in before they start.

  5. In a big feeling

    A button they've practiced on calm days, so it's familiar on hard ones.

  6. At bedtime

    A voice to follow while their body slows down.

  7. At 2am

    They reach for it and find their own way back to sleep.

Made to feel safe and simple.

  • They're in charge

    They press the button themselves. Nothing to ask for, nothing to open.

  • Predictable

    The same voice and the same buttons, every time.

  • Nothing to overstimulate

    No screen, no ads, nothing flashing. On Connect, wifi stays off unless you turn it on to add tracks or change the light.

  • Easy on the senses

    A soft silicone shell, buttons they can feel, and a headphone jack. Connect has a button lock so settings stay put.

A voice they know, on a button they can press.

With Zenimal Connect and the Zenimal app, you can record your voice, a grandparent's, or the calm words your child already knows from therapy, and put it on a button they can press anytime.

Recording is part of the Zenimal app subscription. Your first 30 days are included with Zenimal Connect. The app is for grown ups; your child only uses the device.

Questions

Is Zenimal a treatment for anxiety or ADHD?

No. Zenimal is a calm practice tool, not a medical device or a treatment. If you're worried about your child, talk with their doctor or therapist. Zenimal can sit alongside that support.

What if my child resists it at first?

That's common. Start with a sleep sound or let them press the buttons and explore with no goal. Try a meditation together when they're curious.

Which one should I choose?

If you'd like a nightlight and the option to record a familiar voice, choose Zenimal Connect. If you want the simplest setup with no app, choose Zenimal Kids+. For ages 12 and up, choose Zenimal+.

Can a teacher or therapist use it?

Yes. Zenimal is in classrooms and used by therapists. Schools and organizations can get volume pricing.

What if it isn't right for us?

Try it for 30 nights. If it isn't right, send it back for a refund, less $6 for return shipping and refurbishing.
