The Cards are Amazing
“Last night my son didn't want to eat his broccoli, obviously because he's five. He ran and grabbed his Calm Cards again and he said 'I'm feeling frustrated!' These are really great cards.”
Kate - Calgary, AB
They Really Thought of Everything With This One!
“This summer we started using the Mimu & Me Calm and Confident System and it's become one of our favorite travel hacks!”
Lexi - Strathmore, AB
Real life asks a lot of little kids.
Waiting for food. Walking into somewhere new. Finding words for a feeling. Sitting through a long flight. Trying again when something doesn’t go as planned.
Those are the moments where kids practise being in the world.
Mimu & Me brings together screen-free toys, reusable activities and practical support kids can see, hold, practise and return to — while giving grown-ups a useful next step too.

MEET THE FOUNDER
Hi, I’m Brittany.
I’m a mom, former teacher and travel advisor — and I believe kids are capable of experiencing more of the world than we sometimes give them credit for.
Our family has had the restaurant waits that went sideways, the travel days that required every trick we had and the moments when none of us knew quite what to do next.
I built Mimu & Me because familiar, practical tools can make those moments feel more manageable — for kids and grown-ups.
That’s where Mimu & Me came from.
Not from trying to create perfectly calm kids.
From wanting to help raise kids who feel more confident participating in their world — and give parents a few really useful things to bring along for the ride.
