With Earth Day just around the corner, it's the perfect time to inspire children about the beauty and importance of our planet and how we can protect it. The Glasswinged Butterfly Shines Her Light is an empowering story of courage, determination, and making a positive difference in the world.

We also have a free printable resource inspired by the book that will take children on a journey through creativity and environmental stewardship.

Teachers, parents: These are great for Earth Day and all year round.

I am also happy to do book readings and workshops at schools, libraries, or community centers on these topics. Let me know if you are interested.

Please feel free to share your creations. We love to see them!

April 1st is the day of pranks—your sibling swears there’s a spider on your shoulder (for a second, you believe them). But what if I told you there’s a trick happening in our minds all the time—limiting beliefs? These sneaky thoughts make kids believe things like “I’ll never be good enough,” even when they aren’t true. But just like an April Fools’ prank, they can be exposed and rewritten!

How to Catch and Rewrite Your Mind’s April Fools’ Prank

🃏 Use “Yet” Thinking – Instead of “I can’t do this,” teach kids to say, “I can’t do this, yet.” That tiny word flips the thought into possibility. No one wakes up instantly great at something—but effort builds ability over time.

🌱 Progress Over Perfection – Kids often believe mistakes mean they’re failing, but that’s just another trick their minds play! Remind them that progress matters more than perfection. Celebrate hard work, showing up, and small improvements instead of flawless outcomes.

💙 Speak to Yourself Like You Would to a Friend – If a friend struggled with a task, would they say “You’re terrible at this”? No way! Teach kids to replace harsh inner dialogue with kindness, just like they’d support a friend.

Next time a limiting belief sneaks in, help kids stop and ask: “Is this true, or is it an April Fools’ trick my mind is playing on me?”

I have many powerful tools to help kids recognize and reframe limited thought patterns. Please reach out if you need additional tools or support.

Even when the world feels chaotic, there is always room for light. Today, we celebrate 12 years of Purple Splash Studios — twelve years of choosing creativity, choosing connection, and choosing hope.

We’re endlessly grateful for the chance to do work that fills our hearts and that makes a difference to the world. Every child, every family, every workshop, every story shared has shaped us.

This video captures just a glimpse of the joy you’ve brought into our lives. If you have photos or memories to add, we’d love to receive them.

With all our love,
Sheleen and Helene 💜

Most children WANT to do well or behave well.
When they’re struggling, it is more likely that they are missing some tools, skills, or the right environment to help them thrive.

When we shift from “Why won’t you?” to “What do you need?”, everything changes.
We stop seeing defiance and start seeing a child who’s overwhelmed, under-supported, or still learning how to navigate strong feelings and big expectations.

This mindset doesn’t excuse behavior, it explains it. And once we understand the “why,” we can teach the “how.”

Your child isn’t giving you a hard time.
They’re having a hard time.
And with the right tools, they can grow, succeed, and surprise you in the best ways.

Please reach out if you need support. No one needs to do this alone.

So grateful for such a meaningful workshop with this incredible group of tweens!

We explored our emotions, thoughts, actions, and social interactions through creative activities, real‑life scenarios, and open discussion. The group learned practical tools they can use in middle school and beyond, and brought so much honesty, openness, and creativity to the room.

If your community or family is interested in this or other workshops or if your child/adolescent would benefit from a personalized one‑on‑one session, I’d love to support.

Thank you to for welcoming us into their special studio space.

That’s a wrap on our 3‑month school program, Grow and Lead Adventure Club. I am so proud of these kids. Their growth has been incredible, so much more self‑awareness, stronger social and emotional skills, and a real ability to work as a team. Some of them started out so shy, and yet every single student stepped up with courage and presented their team projects.

Watching them reflect on what they learned and share what they enjoyed was truly rewarding.

I’m going to miss this group, but I know they’ll carry these skills with them and use them for years to come.

I’m deeply grateful to the school for giving these students the opportunity to experience this program.

Crafting and dancing with these amazing kids (and their parents!) was pure joy.
K‑pop energy, big imaginations, and so much laughter... the perfect combo.
I love watching kids express themselves and build confidence through movement and art. It’s magic every time. 💜

As Valentine's Day approaches, it’s the perfect time to talk to our kids about the foundation of strong relationships. Whether it's with family, friends, or future partners, understanding these principles early on can set them up for success in all their relationships. Let's explore how to introduce these concepts in an engaging way!

1. Trust:
Trust means believing in your partner's reliability and good intentions. It's the foundation of any strong relationship because it allows both individuals to feel safe and secure.
✨️Activity Idea:

Trust Fall Game: Show your kids how trust works by playing the trust fall game. Have them practice falling back into the arms of a trusted adult or sibling, explaining that trust means believing in each other's reliability and good intentions.

2. Respect:
Respect involves valuing your partner's thoughts, feelings, and opinions. It means appreciating their perspective and treating them with kindness and consideration.
✨️Activity Idea:

Respectful Role-Play: Engage in role-playing scenarios where kids practice listening and responding respectfully to each other's thoughts and feelings. Discuss the importance of valuing others’ opinions.

3. Open Communication:
Open communication means sharing thoughts and feelings openly and honestly. It's about being transparent and making sure both partners are on the same page.
✨️Activity Idea:

The Heart-to-Heart Circle: Create a safe space where everyone can share their thoughts and feelings openly. Use a heart-shaped object as a “talking piece” to pass around, ensuring each person gets a chance to speak and be heard.

BONUS 4. Commitment:
Commitment is a dedication to the relationship and working through challenges together. It shows that both partners are in it for the long haul and willing to put in the effort.
✨️Activity Idea:

Commitment Craft: Help kids create a “commitment chain” by writing down ways they can show dedication to their relationships (e.g., keeping promises, being there for friends). Link the paper strips together to form a chain that represents their commitment.

Pay attention to children's art as it has so much to say.

Have you ever noticed how often hearts show up in children’s art?
Not only beautiful they’re cute (even though they are).

Kids draw hearts because art reflects what’s inside them. And inside every child lives a deep want for love, connection, safety, and belonging.

Sometimes creativity is the best way to communicate.

Wishing you all a week filled with love and meaningful connection and creative expression.

Feel free to share your family's creative expression for me to share.

I loved hosting this weekend’s Mindset Masters Workshop. It was such a powerful session filled with bravery, fun, creativity, and learning.

In this workshop, kids step into the role of Thought Agents to explore how thoughts shape feelings and actions, understand their thought patterns, practice reframing unhelpful thoughts, and discover their inner strength.

I'm so grateful to guide children and families through these growth journeys.

🌟 Reach out if you want to bring this workshop to your troop, school, or community or to book a private session for your kids, family, or group.
