This series of workshops allows children to become part of the story as we explore the feelings of the three friendly shapeshifter fairies and superheros, and the obstacles they’ve had to overcome to heal the earth. Boys can make a big difference and reverse gender inequality around the world. The benefits of feeling good about having done something useful and being part of a movement to help others and the planet is what will empower and build self-esteem. Empowerment comes from serving and helping others. These workshops develop empathy, because empathy is not an emotion it’s a skill, and with that skill children can give a contribution towards helping others, helping the planet and themselves. Developing a leadership mindset early in life, while they play and learn to solve problems creatively, is what is going to help them navigate life and become great leaders for others and for themselves. Art therapy taps into the subconscious which helps the child to interpret, express and manage their emotions. This blended workshop does not require any artistic ability or skill, but it does require an open mind to the power of creativity and imagination. We don’t want children to lose their ability to imagine and be creative as they will have lost a precious tool that will help them later in life to creatively deliver solution
