Mindfulness is the consciousness that appears in a state of intentional and nonjudgemental attention, focused on the internal and external experiences in the present moment. Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy for Children (MBCT-C) seeks to help children manage stressors and adverse situations, which are inevitable during life, by integrating a cognitive-behavioural paradigm used to identify and restructure distorted thinking associated with attention and acceptance activities from mindfulness practices. This paper aims to conduct an exploratory theoretical study to compare two MBCT-C protocols. The material used was the description of the themes, objectives and exercises of each of the eight sessions of both protocols (Tables 1 and 2). The content of the themes and objectives of the sessions were compared, session by session, and the results are presented in Table 3, in addition to the word clouds (Figures 1 and 2) created from the objectives and exercises of the sessions. It follows from the comparison between the two protocols studied that there is no heterogeneity of objectives and mindfulness techniques, as pointed out in the literature, especially in the meta-analysis by Kostova et. al (2019) and by Zoogman et al. (2015). This may have occurred since the inclusion criteria grouped the protocols in a way that the objectives of both were retained, although the order of execution of the objectives obeys specific criteria related to the clinical group in which the MBCT-C models were tested: stress in general - Friary (2018); mood disorder - Ames et al. (2014).
