About the store
Hi, I'm Richa — an educator with years of experience teaching children across preschool, primary grades, public speaking, and learning support. One thing I've seen consistently: children don't struggle because they can't learn. They struggle because the small everyday skills — following routines, managing big feelings, expressing themselves calmly — haven't been taught in a way that sticks. That's what I create resources for. Every resource in this store is designed to be simple, practical, and ready to use — in Morning Meetings, Calm Corners, circle time, behaviour support routines, and daily connection moments at home and in the classroom. My resources help children: ✨ Follow instructions and routines more easily ✨ Handle emotions like frustration, anger, and hesitation ✨ Build confidence and express themselves clearly ✨ Develop the everyday habits that shape who they become Small changes in how we guide children make a bigger difference than any lesson plan. 👉 Visit www.deckofSmiles.com for free resources, articles, and practical tools for parents and educators.

Teaching style

My approach is simple, calm, and practical. I focus on creating structured routines, clear expectations, and supportive environments where children feel guided—not overwhelmed. Through everyday activities, reflection prompts, and guided interactions, children gradually learn how to manage their responses, express themselves, and participate more calmly.

Additional biographical information

I believe children don’t need more pressure—they need simple structure, consistency, and the right support. These resources are designed to make everyday interactions calmer, easier, and more meaningful—for both children and adults.
