Daydreams

The car window fairy – I know… not your typical run of the mill garden fairy variety.  I really did think this little fairy existed (only in cars) for the best part of my child-hood, and jeez did I love her! It all started when I was about 4. I was living in Hong Kong at the time and during a Sunday outing in the car my Mum turned to me from the front and said “I am sure if you ask the window fairy nicely, she will open the window for you” …and there it started. “Well hello little...

We understand the challenges of everyday life for Little Dreamers and big ones too. When we created Hatch, our primary objective was to create and cultivate a magical world, which encourages positivity, imagination and mindfulness. Mindfulness is a precious skill that will help teach our children to focus on what is going on around them.

Stop, Take a breath And Relax  Our little ones take big, deep belly breaths from the moment they are born.    Helping them to practise their belly breathing (we also like to call this mindful breathing) can remain a life-long skill that can help them to manage their inner peace.   STAR breathing is a beautiful way to help practise this. It will help to clear and relax their busy little minds and calm any nervous feelings.   We designed Hatch’s STAR with this breathing technique in mind. It is a wonderful and uncomplicated way to help our little ones...
