A calming corner is an effective quiet area in the classroom or home where a child can briefly take a break from an over-stimulating environment or frustrating activity. Keeping the calming area and setting time limits on its use can prevent it from becoming an avoidance tactic when your child does not want to participate in a challenging task or activity.
