The skill is now
wherever they are.
Most things that help get left at home. This one clips on and comes along. The same buddy, the same coping skill — now on a backpack, a lanyard, a set of keys. A quiet reminder that works in every setting the day takes them through.
That is a small thing that does something real.





We use them during our nervous system scans and testing to help kids feel safe, grounded, and relaxed. They've become an essential calming tool — tools that align with our values and genuinely help children feel at ease.

You are in good hands.
Here is what you need to know.
It depends on who is using it and where. The version with the skill text shows the coping prompt visibly — useful for healthcare staff who want to use it as an in-the-moment prompt with patients, or for younger children who benefit from seeing the words. The version without is just the buddy — recognised by the people who know, invisible to everyone else. Discreet for teens, adults, and anyone who wants the support without the explanation.
Choose the one that matches the skill you or the person using it needs most right now. Black Leopard for grounding — when the body needs to feel safe first. Moon Jellyfish for emotional awareness — when feelings need naming and moving through. Fox for reframing — when the mind gets stuck in a loop. Sea Turtle for presence — when coming back to right now is what helps. If in doubt, start with the Black Leopard. Grounding is where the nervous system needs to go first.
They do different things. The keychain is a visual reminder — portable, discreet, always there. The full buddy is a weighted, sensory tool that actively supports regulation in the hard moment. The keychain reinforces the skill between moments. The buddy works in them. Many families and professionals use both — the buddy at home or in clinic, the keychain throughout the school day or work day.
Two things that work
alongside the keychain.
In the moment
Supportive Little Buddy
The keychain keeps the skill visible throughout the day. The buddy activates it when the hard moment arrives. Gentle weight, a built-in coping skill, and something steady to hold when the body takes over. Same character. Same skill. More support.

Visual Coping Tools
The keychain travels. The visual tool stays in the room. Canvas prints featuring the same Lakunakai® characters and coping skills — for clinic walls, classroom corners, and home spaces. The skill is always somewhere visible.

You didn't just buy a keychain.
You kept the skill close.
Wherever the day takes them — classroom, clinic, commute — the buddy and the skill are there. Quietly. Without needing to be explained.
