Feelings Explorers: A Play & Art Journey into Emotions

Use art and play to express what’s on their minds and in their hearts
-
Practice kindness—to others and to themselves
-
Try fun movement and mindfulness exercises
-
Enjoy meaningful stories and guided group discussions
-
Build confidence and emotional vocabulary in a supportive group setting​
CNEW’s Art & Play Group provides a safe space for children to navigate their emotions, express themselves through creative means and build essential social-emotional skills
Weekly Activities Nurture Growth
& Imagination
Each week includes engaging activities like games, storytelling, hands-on art projects, gentle movement, and circle time rituals—all thoughtfully designed to meet children where they are developmentally and emotionally. From drawing and storytelling to role play and games, children get to explore their inner world in a safe, supportive group setting.
Learning continues at home
​​Because we know learning continues outside our sessions, we provide take-home tools to help you continue the conversation at home—like feelings journals, affirmation cards, and creative worksheets.​
Through art and play, we teach children explore emotions in a safe, creative space—building emotional skills that last a lifetime
