Course Content

This two‑session parent and child course uses play and creativity to support communication and listening in a relaxed, enjoyable way. Through drama, storytelling, art and shared creative activities, families explore how children express thoughts and feelings beyond words. Parents are supported to follow their child’s lead, notice non‑verbal communication and build confidence in listening without pressure or judgement. The course creates a safe, inclusive space for families to strengthen connection, build trust and develop practical skills that support children’s voice and emotional expression.
