Purposeful Play

Play is a potent healing tool children utilise naturally. 

Children use play to undo all the little traumas sustained throughout the normal course of a day.  As parents we can actively participate in and enhance this process by directing our attention and engaging our willingness.

This funshop is for parents.  It will create excitment and eagerness around meeting lifes hurdles and invite closeness and connection between yourself and your child.

In this highly interactive session, we will touch on 9 forms of productive, purposeful play.

We'll cover some theory, however the larger component is an embodied experience of the different styles and we'll quickly identify our individual areas of strength and develop simple yet effective strategies to capitalise on them.

You will leave this 'fun-shop' with a solid understanding of play and its powerful benefits.  

You will leave feeling confident in your ability to help your child navigate lifes challenges with fun and ease.  

You will leave with your toolbox restocked as well as with the formulas to develop your own games to suit your ever-changing circumstances of parenting. 

This 'fun-shop' is empowering, invigorating and uplifting and will put a new spin on old problems.  It will create excitment and eagerness around leaning into life's hurdles as opportunities and, in turn, invite trust, closeness, and connectedness between yourself and your child.

Expect Change!
