Rediscovering Your Inner Child |

Description:
This program was the greatest kind of stress relief there is! I had an
idea to combine a counselor with fun child-like activities...So the
person I had come and talk was a counselor, but it would be an easy
program to do yourself. As staff I know I get tons of information
throughout the year and in training on various topics. You could go
through your information and find something to present. Now the
talking part takes about 20-25 minutes and from there you have other
fun activities such as FINGER PAINTS (this went over very well),
paints, sponges, crayons, markers, playdough...We also made Stress
balls (balloons filled with sand, salt or flour).
I hope you give this program a try, it was very successful for me and
it only cost about 15-20$ for 40 people.
Instructions_Things_Needed:
-Paper (8.5x11) & Larger pieces for signs if they want to make
one.
- Paints (washable finger paints)
- Play dough
- Markers/crayons
- Ballons
- Filler for the balloons
- Newspaper for underneath, preventing stains and extra cleanup
- Paintbrushes/sponges
(* Note: you can buy activity sets that include paint, brushes and
sponges..)
Other_Considerations:
Make sure you get enough filler for your stress balls and make sure
you get big enough balloons :)
