Workshops Description
Name Your Emotions: Story Stick Workshop for Families
Are you looking for a simple, creative way to help your family communicate and understand emotions? In this Naming Emotions- Story Stick Workshop, parents and children will connect through an engaging, hands-on activity that makes emotions easier to identify and talk about.
What You’ll Do
In this workshop, you and your child will create an Emotion Story Stick by wrapping colorful yarn around sticks, with each color representing different feelings. It’s like turning feelings into something you can see and touch—helping you give names to feelings when words are hard to find.
Together, you’ll explore a range of emotions and learn how to express them through colors and textures, building a shared emotional language that can be used in everyday conversations. The session will conclude with making a just-for-play, whimsical Story Stick.
Why It Matters
It's overwhelming when children act out due to unrecognized emotions. This workshop offers a practical tool by turning emotions into a visual and tactile resource. These sticks become part of your family’s toolkit, making tough feelings easier to navigate.
Take the Workshop Benefits Home
By the end of the session, you’ll have your own Emotion Story Sticks—lasting tools that foster resilience, emotional openness, and deeper family communication. Plus, you’ll receive guidance on how to keep these emotional conversations going at home.
Build Emotional Skills for Life
Emotion Story Sticks are long-term tools that help your family better understand and express feelings. This hands-on process engages both children and adults, making emotional exploration fun and creative. You'll also receive practical tips for continuing these conversations at home.
Naming emotions through Story Sticks are more than just creative exercises—they're essential skills, helping your family grow stronger roots, ready to face life’s challenges together.
