The Quiet Corner is a short, calm poem about calming down, written for Autism Learning Guide to read aloud with your child.
Listen together Read aloud by Amy · 15 seconds
When the world feels big and loud,
Like a noisy, rushing crowd,
I can go where it is still,
Soft cushions on the windowsill.
Breathe in slow and breathe out long,
Soon I feel calm and strong.
Talk about it together
Where is your quiet place?
Tip: read it again tomorrow. Children often enjoy saying the last word of each line once the poem feels familiar.
