Itty Bitties say “Yes We Can!”

This week at Itty Bitty Arts Camp is all about doing tough stuff and loving it!  Allison designed the Yes We Can Framework to help young children work through their feelings around challenging situations and learn how to come out the other side with a more confident sense of self.  We chose this as our Week 3 theme since many of our Itty Bitties will be starting kindergarten next week and need a little extra help making that tough transition into big kids school.

Here are a couple of clips of Allison, who is also the drama teacher this week.  The first one shows her teaching young actors one of the most essential theater games any actor should know.  And the second gives you a sneak peek of how we put all of their ideas together into the story you will see on stage.

Here is a clip of a visual art activity where young artists are supported to channel their feelings through paint.

And, it’s not all work work work at Glitter & Razz.  I loved this break time moment involving a very popular story read by Caroline.
