For children still learning to name what they feel.
- Emotional vocabulary, built through art
- Stories they can recognise themselves in
- Presence, attention and confidence
Cohorts of ten children, two evenings a week — building emotional vocabulary, attention and confidence through art, clay and books. In a room with no screens.
Children join the cohort for their age and grow with the same ten children — that continuity is what makes the learning stick.
For children still learning to name what they feel.
For children starting to withdraw — behind a door, behind a screen.
Enrolment is month to month. The journey is designed for three years — most families stay because their child asks to.
About the cohorts, about your child, about whatever is on your mind. Arun is a TISS-trained counsellor — the first conversation is free, and there is no pressure to enrol.
Book the free callChildren settle faster when they know what to expect.
One word, one feeling, one thing from their week. No pressure.
Forty minutes of art, clay or books — individual work in shared space.
Each child shares one thing they made or noticed. This is what they carry home.
