Mindful Making for Kids

This one-hour workshop, designed for children in kindergarten through 3rd grade, will allow kids to explore mindfulness in a way that’s accessible, joyful, and meaningful. The session will introduce a playful mindfulness technique and pair it with a hands-on craft that reinforces emotional awareness, focus, and self-expression.

Must pre-register/pay in advance.
