At Chrysalis Play Therapy we believe every mind is unique and special in it’s own wonderful way 💙

That is why we are proud to support World Autism Acceptance Month this April.

Just like Spinny and Buzz, we know that when we lead with kindness, we discover something truly wonderful in everyone.

✨Writer by night, play therapist & child educator by day!

✨Yesterday I had the best time delivering a workshop at St. Patrick’s Primary School, diving into all things child behaviour - with a few games thrown in for good measure.

A huge thank you to the wonderful staff for having me - you were brilliant! 🙌🌟

🐝 Meet Buzz 🐝

Fun. Spirited. Thoughtful. Sensitive.

Fitting in wasn’t always easy for Buzz but that all changed when she met Spinny 💛

✨ Spinny and Buzz — coming soon!

It’s getting closer… 👀 My proof copy of Spinny and Buzz just landed and I couldn’t be more excited! Time to check every page is just right. Watch this space! 🐝🕷️

🕷️ Meet Spinny 🕷️

Skilled. Determined. Kind. Resilient.

Spinny is the friend every child deserves - and the character every child can see a little of themselves in. 🕸️

✨ Spinny and Buzz - coming soon!

A massive shoutout to the wonderful P7 students at St. Caireall’s Primary School, Aghyaran! 🌟

I’m blown away by their creative “Feelings Clotheslines” based on my Nana Jean book. From being “scared of heights”, or feeling nervous about the “transfer test” or “a penalty kick”, these kids are proving that no feeling is too big to handle when you have the right tools.

Thank you for sharing your worries with me (and Nana Jean!). You’ve made my day. 🌈

A huge thank you to Eileen from Waymaker for these beautiful Little Bear affirmation cards. 🧸✨

In Play Therapy, we know that the language a child uses to describe themselves becomes their inner compass. I am so excited to integrate these into my clinical practice to help my young clients build resilience, self-belief, and emotional regulation. Sometimes a ‘bear-sized’ reminder is all it takes to help a child see their own incredible potential. 💛

Happy World Book Day! 📚✨

To celebrate, I’m thrilled to introduce my second book: Spinny and Buzz! 🕷️🐝

Spinny has a sparkling ‘weboline’ but no one to bounce with. Buzz has a stinger that scares everyone away. Can a clumsy accident and a bit of forest magic turn these two into the perfect team? 🕸️🍯

Discover a story where kindness is the key to a friendship as sweet as can be 💫

Coming the end of March!

Spread the word! Tag a teacher or a fellow book-lover in the comments who needs to meet this duo! 👇

✨There’s so much learning in the simple act of feeling air move, laughing together, and exploring sensations — just like feeling the air from Nana Jean’s dryer under the parachute.

✨Sensory play helps children build emotional awareness, confidence, and a sense of safety in learning.

✨I honestly don’t know who enjoys these workshops more… me or the kids 💖

✨To bring these play-based social emotional workshops to your school or organization — call Paula on 07510 054205 or email paula@chrysalisplaytherapy.com
