Finding therapy that actually engages a tween is its own challenge. This one meets them where they are.

The Express Yourself toolbox pairs with the Express Yourself Program in the Hub and is packed with real, hands-on creative projects: jewellery making, clay work, customising a hat and tote bag, bookmark crafting. Nothing babyish, nothing clinical. Just genuinely cool things to make that happen to build fine motor skills, executive function, focus and a stronger sense of self along the way.

Our therapy team designed every project to be challenging enough to be satisfying, and supportive enough that kids aged 8-14 who tend to avoid new things will actually give it a go. Everything they need is in the box.

Suitable for ages 8-14.

Parent Guide

Parent Guide

A short guide for you (the adult), covering what each of the five projects is for, what to have ready before one starts, and where to step back and let them figure things out.

Why we built it this way

The Power of Thinking Ahead

The Power of Thinking Ahead

This kit gives your child a safe, low-stakes space to practise planning and problem-solving. By sketching ideas on paper before touching the fabric markers, or portioning out their clay before sculpting, they learn the value of pausing, mapping out a strategy, and pivoting. It teaches them how to experiment freely, building the confidence to try and refine their ideas.
Inspired by Their Own Imagination

Inspired by Their Own Imagination

We start by having your child create a personal vision board filled with the colours, words, and imagery that reflect who they are. Hung proudly in their workspace, this board becomes the creative blueprint for the rest of the kit. When a child feels stuck or asks, "What do I do next?", they don't have to look to an adult for answers.
Confidence They Can Wear (and Share)

Confidence They Can Wear (and Share)

Your child can proudly wear the cap they designed, style the jewellery they threaded, carry the tote bag they customised, and nurture the seeds in the planter they built. The ultimate reward comes when a friend or stranger asks where they got it, and your child gets the unmatched confidence boost of saying, "I made it myself."

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PLAY KIT

The videos that come with it

The kit is ready to use from the day it arrives, so your child can start the vision board as soon as they open the box. There is a little over two hours of video, laid out project by project in the order your child can follow. The videos are slow enough that your child can watch a step, stop, do it, and pick it up again. One video is addressed to you (the adult), and you watch it before your child gets started. We'll send your invitation to access it all when your kit ships so you can prepare while it’s in the post.

WHO THIS PLAY KIT IS FOR

If this sounds like you

  • Most craft kits designed to build hand skills look like they were made for toddlers. My tween needs projects that feel cool, modern, and mature.
  • If I set up the materials, they will happily sit down and do it. But the second I ask them, "What do you want to make?", I’m met with a blank stare or a shrug.
  • If they think it won't turn out perfectly, they simply won't start. Not trying feels much safer than failing for my child.
this is who we built the play kit for.

Who made this

Kait is an OT. She has been working with children and families for nearly 20 years, and she has four kids of her own. She designed this play kit to tackle a hidden hurdle in childhood development. When a task has multiple steps, knowing how to start is often the hardest part for kids. And as well-meaning adults, we usually step in and handle this initial planning stage for them, but that’s not doing them any favours as they get older. In this kit, the child is walked through all the steps, including the planning and the thinking. We model the patience, planning, and preparation they need to develop these skills for life.
