Stories are how children make sense of the world—and themselves. In this uplifting seminar, we’ll explore how storytelling can become a powerful wellbeing tool in your setting. Drawing from Wendy’s unique coaching method and the Wise For My Size approach, you’ll learn how stories can help children explore their emotions, build resilience, and develop a sense of self-worth.
Now more than ever, children need safe ways to process complex feelings. Storytelling offers a gentle, engaging way to do just that. Whether you’re reading a book, inventing a tale, or using metaphor in everyday language, you’re offering children a lifeline—a way to feel seen, understood, and empowered.
This seminar is for anyone who wants to use storytelling as more than just a literacy tool. It’s for early years practitioners who believe in the power of connection, creativity, and compassion.
