Worry Monsters and Growth Mindset

Does your child love to make their own gifts? Then this Christmas present making workshops with Strength Heroes is not to be missed. At this workshop, kids will get arty and have fun making contemporary presents that their family and friends will treasure. Kids will make four 4 very arty gifts for Mum, Dad, sisters and brothers and Christmas decorations. We can’t tell you what they will make cause then it won’t be a surprise! Kids will leave with wrapped presents ready to put under the Christmas tree. But be warned, they may be so impressed they will gift them to themselves. Best of all, we will keep them entertained while you take the opportunity to finish your Christmas preparations. Not only will your child learn some new art skills, they will also explore and celebrate what they are grateful for and how to practice gratitude all the time and not just at Christmas. Each child will receive a Gratitude Game which is an easy way for the whole family to develop the art of gratitude.

Our two day kids art class, Mistake Maker Camp workshop is our signature school holiday programs. In our school holiday workshop explore mistake making. They will learn how to deal with mistakes and face worries with confidence and a growth mindset. In our Mistake Maker camp kids will explore the art of being and thinking like a Mistake Maker through:

• creating three “make-something-great-from-a-mistake” art projects;
• learning strategies to think with a growth mindset and react with confidence and resilience when mistakes happen;
• learning about famous Mistake Makers in history; and

They will let their creativity flow as they complete artsy activities of Zen tangling, painting, drawing to scale, calming colouring in, weaving and clay sculpting. Your child will be surprised by how much they can achieve through thinking and behaving with a growth mindset. Not only will your child learn some new art skills, they will also learn resilience and mindfulness techniques and receive our BAT and Wizzy Dizzy to help manage their emotions when BIG emotions strike. Please note, this is not an overnight camp. Children come for each day between 9-3.30pm.
