WHO THE PROGRAM IS FOR

Does this sound familiar?

"My tween needs to work on their fine motor skills, but finds a lot of activities or therapies too junior."

"My child finds it difficult to sustain their focus on an activity and see it through to completion."

"My child is reluctant to try new activities or projects that require new skills for fear of failure."

If these challenges sound familiar, you are not alone - it's exactly why we've designed this program.

ABOUT THE VIDEO TRAINING

What the program covers

The Express Yourself Program aims to build skills through a series of projects that provide opportunities for self-expression, creative exploration and joy.

The projects include creating a bookmark, jewellery-making, designing your own hat and tote bag and clay-based activities. These projects are delivered using instruction cards, guided videos and through the toolbox.

Each project includes one main activity that's explained and modelled to help embed new creative skills and techniques. Participants are then encouraged to apply these skills new creations using their own adaptations.

The program also involves an initial vision-planning activity where participants explore and identify sources of inspiration, self-confidence boosters and strengths and qualities that are unique to them.

By engaging participants in hands-on tasks that support imagination and creativity, we aim to support new skills and a sense of self-confidence as participants see their creations come to life.
