The family pack, wind down together
A moonbird for you and a moonbuddy for your child. Pick your colour, pick their character, and make winding down something you do together.
- Two devices, one ritual: you wind down with your moonbird while your child follows theirs
- Any combination: pick your moonbird colour and your child’s character
- Screen-free by design: one button and a session that stops itself after 6 minutes
Build your pack
Moonbird is the adult device, with several breathing rhythms and an optional app with biofeedback. Moonbuddy is built for children ages 6 to 12: soft, one button, four rhythms, and fully screen-free. Both expand and contract in the hand so you breathe along with something you can feel.
Inside they are identical: same button, same rhythms, same 6 minute session. The only difference is the character, so let your child pick.
moonbuddy is designed for children ages 6 to 12. Younger children often enjoy it too, always together with a parent.

What is in the family pack
Two breathing companions with the same one job: a rhythm in the hand that is easier to follow than any instruction.
moonbird, for you
The adult breathing coach, in four colours. Hold it, feel it expand and contract, and breathe along until your own pace slows.
- Multiple breathing rhythms to choose from
- Optional app with heart rate biofeedback
- Fits in one hand and goes where you go
Barry or Bibi, for your child
A soft breathing buddy that expands and contracts in your child’s hands. Your child follows the movement, no instructions needed.
- One button, four breathing rhythms
- Stops itself after 6 minutes
- Cordless and screen-free, made to be held in bed
Why breathe together
Every parent knows the 8pm scene: lights out, and a busy head switches on. Saying "take a deep breath" rarely lands, because following instructions takes exactly the focus a wound-up child does not have at bedtime.
Moonbird and moonbuddy skip the instruction. The device breathes slowly in your hands and you both follow a rhythm you can feel. Calm becomes something you do together instead of something you ask for.
Night 1
A new last step
Bath, teeth, book, buddy. The buddy slots into the routine you already run, as one step your child controls.
Week 1
The ritual settles
Same rhythm, same moment, every night. The buddy becomes your child’s own signal that the day is done.
Night 30
A skill they keep
Slow breathing is something your child learns by doing. The buddy guides it, your child owns it.
One button, six minutes
1
Press the button
Moonbuddy wakes up with a soft light and starts breathing slowly.
2
Hold and follow
Your child feels the tummy expand and contract and breathes along, eyes open or closed.
3
It stops itself
After 6 minutes the session ends on its own, with nothing to switch off.
Moonbird works the same way for adults, with optional biofeedback in the app.
One pack, many families
The reasons parents tell us they buy more than one, in the setups we see most.
At bedtime
The last step of the wind-down, in bed, lights out. It works in the dark because it works by touch.
At sleepovers
The buddy travels, the ritual comes along. Same rhythm in an unfamiliar bed.
Between two homes
A buddy at each house, so the bedtime ritual stays the same wherever your child sleeps that night.
As a gift
For a niece, nephew or grandchild: a present that is not another screen, with a 30 day guarantee attached.
Before big days
Six calm minutes before a test, a match or a first day. Same buddy, same rhythm, familiar ground.
For you
Your own moonbird, because the calmest presence in the hallway at 8pm ideally is you.
Honest numbers, no magic
We will not promise you a child who falls asleep in minutes. Here is what we can stand behind.

Prefer to start with just you?
Moonbird is the adult version of the same idea: a device that breathes in your hand, so slowing down is something you feel instead of something you count. You can always add a buddy later.
