If your children or grandchildren love animals and are curious to explore their world, then nothing could be more fun and empowering than finding Children’s Spirit Animal Cards in their holiday stocking, under the tree or among their Hanukah gifts this year.

Gorgeously rendered, Children’s Spirit Animal Cards include a deck of 24 stunningly illustrated full-color cards, each of which features a particular spirit animal to help to support children in their personal growth and development with simple yet profound messages of love and guidance.

Welcome to the world of Children’s Spirit Animal Cards, where children are introduced to their own innate intelligence through learning about nature and experiencing the wisdom shared by 24 featured animal friends. The cards and accompanying guidebook–written by best-selling author, licensed psychotherapist, psychologist and shamanic teacher, Dr. Steven D. Farmer, with Jesseca Camacho, and, lovingly illustrated by Pamela Anzalotti–have been awarded the 2012 Sideline PRODUCT OF THE YEAR and 2012 Gold Medal Winner, Best Interactive Sideline Product from the Coalition of Visionary Resources (COVR) (an industry trade association of body-mind-spirit New Age retailers, publishers and product creators), Creative Child Magazine’s 2011 Seal of Excellence, the Mom’s Choice Distinguished Gold Medal Award 2011, and the Parent-Tested Parent-Approved Seal of Excellence Award, the National Parenting Publications Awards Silver Medal and the Mr. Dad Gold Seal of Approval.

Published by Satiama, Colorado-based company that is winning accolades for its unique and meaningful products–and creative website (COVR Website-of-the-Year)–the Children’s Spirit Animal Cards are the results of Satiama’s collaboration with significant artists and leaders to bring forth signature product lines.

The Children’s Spirit Animal Cards are the culmination of Farmer’s vision to have people of all ages around the world deeply connect with nature and discover there the tools for living peaceful, fulfilling lives. These imaginative cards provide children ages 6 and up with beautiful, age-appropriate spirit animal messages to help them as they develop and mature.

“The cards are a magical and wonderful bridge between a child or grandchild’s own sense of curiosity and their love of animals,” says the Laguna Beach, California-based Dr. Farmer, who is also a husband, father of four and most recently a grandfather. “This card deck highlights intuition, imagination, reverence, and ritual and helps kids become aware of the messages they are constantly receiving from the Universe and the natural world. We’re learning of many instances where children are having deep, life-affirming conversations with parents and caregivers when using their cards on a regular basis.”

The cards focus on such key messages as the importance of self-love, kindness, and respect for others and the natural world, how children may appropriately use their personal voices for empowerment, and how to channel their feelings to the positive.

The accompanying guidebook explains how to use the cards and provides additional insight about each of the lessons animals are here to teach. A Guide for Parents section shares ideas for further connection and suggests activities geared toward building family relationships and nurturing spiritually-centered children.

The Earth-centered approach to teaching children about life’s most important lessons offered by Children’s Spirit Animal Cards encourages them to take full responsibility for their own habits, feelings and ideas, and empowering them to create their world as an even better place. By teaching children the virtue of loving and respecting themselves and others, the cards are a foundation for habits and values that they’ll take with them throughout their lives.

“The Children’s Spirit Animal Cards has been one of our greatest successes at Satiama as they appeal to kids, teachers, parents and grandparents—and they have been recognized as a powerful learning tool. Children love animals and this is a very charming yet meaningful gift,” says Satiama.com co-founder Karen Stuth. “I definitely wish we’d had spirit animal cards like these while I was growing up!”

And, now just in time for the holidays, Satiama is also is releasing the first in a series of new Children’s Spirit Animal Stories on audio CD. These delightful one-of-a-kind stories offer the marvelous spirit animal tales–written and voiced by Farmer. Based on the Children’s Spirit Animal Cards, this lovely gift of storytelling makes the magical realm of animals come alive.
