SEE IT FIRST
Explore what happens before it happens.
Use the book at home to see, talk about and play through parts of the first-flight experience.
A BIG MOMENT
Make something new feel a little more familiar.
First flights come with a lot of new things - airports, boarding, seatbelts, takeoff, waiting and wondering what happens next.
My First Flight gives kids a playful way to explore the experience before they ever step onto the plane.
Then, when travel day arrives, the same familiar book can come along for the adventure.
PLAY THROUGH IT
Reveal, stick, talk and discover.
Water-reveal pages and reusable stickers give little hands a playful way to interact with the story.
TRY IT IN REAL LIFE
Bring something familiar along.
When travel day arrives, the same book becomes a familiar screen-free activity during waiting and time in the air.
INSIDE THE STORY
See what's coming, one little step at a time.
The story moves through the experience in a simple sequence, giving kids a chance to see what might happen next before the real day arrives.
WATCH IT APPEAR
Add water. Reveal the story.
Brush water across the page and watch the picture appear. As the page dries, it's ready to reveal again.
ANOTHER WAY TO PLAY
The story doesn't stop with water.
Reusable stickers give kids another hands-on way to interact with the experience - moving, placing and playing as they explore what happens along the way.
TALK ABOUT IT TOGETHER
A little starting point for bigger conversations.
The book gives you something concrete to look at together.
You can talk about what your child notices, what they're curious about, what feels exciting, what feels uncertain and what they think might happen next.
There's no perfect script - sometimes seeing it, playing with it and talking about it together is enough to make it feel more familiar.
PRACTISE THROUGH PLAY
Familiarity starts before the big moment.
The real value isn't only what happens while a child is using the book.
Using it ahead of time gives them a chance to get familiar with the experience, the language around it and the little steps involved.
When the real moment arrives, they've already had a chance to explore it through play.
- See it
- Play through it
- Talk about it
- Practise it
- Try it in real life
WHEN THE REAL DAY COMES
Bring the familiar into the real moment.
When travel day arrives, the same book your child explored at home can come with you.
That familiarity can make the book useful in two ways: before the trip as a way to explore what's ahead, and during the trip as a familiar screen-free activity.
MORE THAN AN ACTIVITY BOOK
Play with a purpose - without making it feel like a lesson.
These books are designed around real childhood experiences, feelings and skills.
The Calm Crew gives kids familiar characters to follow. The visual sequence helps make the experience easier to understand. Water reveal and reusable stickers keep little hands involved. And the story gives parents something natural to talk about together.
The goal isn't perfect behaviour.
It's giving kids a playful way to practise being in the world.
THE CALM CREW SERIES
Big moments. Big feelings. Big problems.
My First Flight is the beginning of a growing Calm Crew series designed to help little kids explore the experiences, feelings and skills that can feel really big when you're little.
Through visual stories, water-reveal play and reusable stickers, kids get a chance to see it, play through it, talk about it and practise before - or while - it happens.
Today it's a first flight.
Tomorrow it might be a dentist visit, a first day of school, learning to wait or another everyday challenge.
