BRINGING EMOTIONAL LEARNING TO K-12 SCHOOLS!!
Feelings are a HUGE part of our daily life, yet we don’t really talk about them... The good news is that together we can change that and de-stigmatize mental health. I partner with schools, libraries, shelters, and all kinds of organizations serving kids and teens to make emotional learning accessible and fun!
Whether you’re looking for someone to lead an activity at a pop-up event or a drawing workshop at your school, my visits are sizzling with wholesome characters, punny stories, and uplifting messages that remind us feeling is part of being human!
School s’more fun with friends!
Want to bring Twitch and his campfire crew to your school? Let’s glow! Below are a few ways I can bring emotional learning to elementary-aged kids:
“Where Did Anxiety Go?”: Book read-aloud in Spanish or English. Great for K-2 kids!
Let’s Draw Twitch!: Step-by-step drawing session of my wholesome characters. Great for 3rd - 5th graders!
mental health in school is cool!
Workshops for middle and high school students:
”Drawing from Within” (45-90 min): Combines mindfulness exercise + drawing to create meaningful emotions-based characters.
”Teens & Zines: Intro to Writing Comics” (45-60 min): We’ll cover making-comics 101 and students will complete their own 8-page zine to take home.
-”Building Worlds & Characters for Children’s Stories” (45-min to 1.5 hrs) Students interested in kidlit, will learn what makes a memorable character and create their own!
POP UpS!
