Dharma Kids Program

Dharma Kids introduces children to mindfulness in a fun way that is developmentally appropriate for ages 5-10. Each class has a theme based in Buddhist ethics and wisdom, such as loving kindness, gratitude, moderation, honesty, etc.

We use stories and crafts to explore the theme and lots of games, movement, and breathwork to build focus and encourage self-regulation. We emphasize the mind-body connection so kids understand WHY they often feel big feelings and how that affects their bodies and their behavior.

Rather than sitting for long periods of time, quiet moments are interspersed throughout the class, creating multiple opportunities to notice what is going on inside the body and the mind. Dharma Kids develop strategies to take good care of ALL of their emotions (even the unpleasant ones).
