Well-Being Adventurers

30/03/2026

In one of our recent classes a child wanted to fold all of the scarves after the class (all 32 of them!).

⌚It was break time for them and me and I could have told them that they needed to go out and play.
👞I could have told them that it wasn't necessary and rushed them to put their shoes on.

But instead they had a calm time putting some things in order, there was something very regulating for them about calmly folding in a quiet space.

Allowing space for them was a really small thing, but it bought them a lot of joy and it really did look nice to have all of the scarves folded!

What's in the bag?!

One of the ways that engagement and excitement are fostered in Well-Being Adventurers classes is through novelty.

The coloured bags that we use are fun ways to get the children:

* Curious... "What's in the bag?!"
* Motivated to participate- as they are more likely to get chance to 'pick from the bag' if they are actively joining in.

So, what do you think is in this bag?

Progression is important in all learning!

As an experienced educator myself, building on prior knowledge is really important in Well-Being Adventurers lessons.

Even though our lessons are fun, active and centered around well-being, educational theory is a key part of our approach.

In our lessons we lay firm foundations and build on what we know 🐻🌋

I had an email asking if I'm still doing children's workshops as the person emailing hadn't seen much from me recently. Sorry about that! 🙃

I am VERY MUCH still doing children's workshops as well as trainings for adults.

A while ago I deleted social media apps from my phone for my own well-being, but I realise that has meant that I've not been great at sharing stuff.

I'll try and remember to post things here intentionally from my laptop when I can 😊

Here's a lovely photo of a recent school hall during Children's Mental Health Week.

Children's Mental Health Week is on the horizon and this week I've been organising my up and coming enrichment days.

It seems like a great time to talk about why I think that enrichment days in schools are really valuable.

Whether you are an educator working in a school or nursery or a well-being practitioner (such as yoga teacher, or meditation teacher) who is considering delivering enrichment days, you may find this video and blog useful in understanding the value of enrichment activities.

A teacher in one of my schools:
"This is a really, fizzy, energetic class and it takes a lot for them to be calm like this...any chance that you could come on residential with us?!"
