Moonbuddy Barry de Beer

Sometimes a child’s head is just too full. A busy school day, many impressions, tension or difficulty with the transition to bed can ensure that relaxation does not happen automatically. Moonbuddy Barry is a gentle breathing buddy that helps children to bring their attention to breathing in a simple and playful way.

Barry has a moving belly that goes up and down quietly. By feeling the belly and following the movement, your child gets a concrete rhythm to breathe with. In this way, breathing calmly becomes not only something you have to do, but something you can literally feel.

A moment of rest that your child can discover for themselves

It can be difficult for children to relax on their own. Just telling them to breathe calmly is often not enough.

Moonbuddy Barry makes breathing tangible. Your child can hold Barry, follow the movement of the belly and move along at their own pace. This can become a pleasant part of a daily moment of rest.

For example, Barry can be used:

• 🌙 before sleeping, as part of the evening ritual;
• 🎒 after a busy school day, to de-stimulate;
• 💛 in case of tension or restlessness, when a quiet moment is welcome;
• 🧘 during a moment of relaxation, at home or at school;
• 🚗 on the go, thanks to its compact size.

No screen, app or complicated controls

Moonbuddy Barry is deliberately simple. You don’t need a smartphone, app or internet connection. The breathing rhythm becomes visible and palpable through the movement of Barry’s belly.

There are four different breathing rhythms, so you can discover which pace feels comfortable. A session lasts about six minutes and then stops automatically.

That makes Barry easy to use as part of a set routine, without the need for a parent to constantly supervise.

Great for children who experience a lot of stimuli

Children with a high sensitivity to stimuli may need a clear and calm anchor point. Moonbuddy Barry doesn’t add any sounds, screen graphics, or complicated commands. The focus is mainly on one simple experience: the calm rhythm of breathing.

That is why Barry can be a valuable addition for children who, for example, are easily overstimulated, have difficulty switching or need a recognizable moment of rest.

Moonbuddy Barry is a tool for relaxation and self-regulation and does not replace medical or professional treatment.

Barry goes along easily

Thanks to the small and light design, your child can easily take Barry with you. This way, the familiar moment of rest does not only have to take place at home.
