School Programs
Play-based learning that supports children's emotional and social development
I offer engaging school programs that help students build empathy, communication, and cooperation skills they can use right away. Through guided group activities and creative play, students explore emotions, practice perspective-taking, and develop tools for respectful communication. Sessions are age-appropriate, interactive, and designed to make social-emotional learning memorable and fun in classroom and school-based settings.
In a typical session, students will:
1
LEARN
Emotional awareness
using Lego® themed Feelings and Needs cards
2
BUILD
In small groups, choose a real-life scenario and build a Lego® scene with dialogue
3
CREATE
Photograph the scene with iPads and create a comic that reflects their learning
