School, relationships, and other challenges can lead to big emotions. Help organize those complex feelings and relieve stress through stories and art activities.

The program begins with a story that addresses a social emotional concept or a challenging situation. We spend a few minutes talking about the story, then we turn on some music and make art. The activities are process based and the children enjoy exploring and experimenting with various materials. We use a visual schedule, keep the lights low, and offer sensory tools and noise cancelling headphones.

Parents and caregivers of children 8 and under must stay in the library during the program.
