When most people think of Halloween, they picture fun — costumes, sweets, laughter, and excitement.
But for some children, Halloween isn’t exciting at all.
It’s loud. Unpredictable. Overstimulating. Confusing.
And honestly… terrifying in all the wrong ways.
As a SEND mum, I’ve been there. I’ve watched my child cover their ears at doorbells, melt down over scratchy costumes, or freeze at the sight of people in masks.
And the worst part?
People don’t get it.
They think your child is being rude, dramatic, or “not joining in.”
But we know the truth: they’re just trying to feel safe.
💡 So how do we make Halloween feel safer?
We start by honouring how our kids experience the world.
Instead of pushing them into chaos, we create soft landings.
We bring the calm with us — in our presence, our language, and sometimes, in the little tools we offer them to feel secure.
🌙 That’s exactly why I created the Halloween Calm Bubble Kit
It’s not about “fixing” your child.
It’s about giving them something gentle and grounding in a season that can feel intense.
Inside the kit, you’ll find 10 calming, sensory-friendly items — from our exclusive Calm Bubble essential oil blend to a Tiger’s Eye worry stone and fidget toys, to affirmation colouring and treats. All designed to help your child self-soothe, feel safe, and know they’re loved — no matter how spooky the world feels.
💌 Whether they use it before trick-or-treating, during a party, or to wind down after a big day, it’s a small act of care that can make a big difference.
And that’s what we’re all trying to do, right?
Not make Halloween perfect.
Just make it feel a little bit kinder
