Synopsis

WEAVE is a multi-modality children’s workshop that invites children to explore the interconnecting threads of dreams and fears in their life. Our dreams and fears are often intertwined with significant events and changes that happen in our lives. Scary, uninvited, and uncomfortable as they may sometimes be, our fears tell a deeper story of what is truly important to us when we allow them a space to be. Through games, therapeutic art activities, and somatic (body-based) movements, this workshop supports children in a safe space as they explore the stories behind their fears and weave these fears with connecting threads of their hopes and dreams. They will get to co-create ways to empower themselves in rewriting their stories around their fears and breathe new life and hope into their dreams. 

 

Some of the activities that you may experience in the workshop include:

  • Discovering different forms of dreams through games and imaginary play
  • Reflections on the thoughts, and emotions of fears with individual and collaborative art
  • Reframing fears through storytelling
  • Learning simple body-based regulation activities whenever our fears become too big to handle.
