Children's Conversation skills
• Register HERE •
For many children it is easy to strike up a conversation or join one already in progress but for others engaging in small talk or starting a conversation can be challenging. Developing a child’s conversational skills and etiquette is important as it helps them build confidence, cultivate friendships, and understand social expectations. A child who is good at communicating verbally will often produce better written communication and interpret what they read more accurately, helping them in all areas of academics. Our 60-minute conversation skills workshop will cover some of the following topics:
Topics include:
How to start a conversation
Icebreakers to start a conversation
How to keep a conversation going
How to end a conversation
Topics to avoid
Active listening and not interrupting
Being respectful and non-judgmental
Rude and disrespectful body language and behavior
Giving and receiving compliments
Children's Social Skills Workshop
• Register HERE •
Children are the leaders of tomorrow. Present them with the opportunity to feel self-reliant
and confident in any social situation by taking interactive lessons taught by a certified etiquette consultant. Our workshop is designed to empower them with life skills that propel them towards personal and professional success. These skills will help them succeed at school, socially, and later, professionally and can create an appealing differentiator that sets them apart. Our lessons aim to instill social consideration and mutual respect as we believe that when children are taught these basic social skills in their early years, they tend to become more socially responsible as they grow up. To survive the rising social pressure, children must be trained in a way to feel confident and comfortable around people and to find their place in the world.

May 1st - June 5th
In our exciting art classes, children will explore the fundamentals of drawing, painting, and sculpting through hands-on exercises and interactive demonstrations. Each session is thoughtfully crafted to spark creativity and encourage self-expression, all within a fun and supportive environment.
Drawing & Sculpting: Kids will learn essential techniques as they draw and sculpt an animal from a plaster model. This hands-on experience will help them gain a deeper understanding of proportions, form, and movement, building strong foundational skills in both art and observation.
Painting: In this session, students will paint still-life scenes in acrylics on canvas, using everyday objects like pots, cups, fruits, and chess pieces as their reference. Still life is a wonderful and accessible way to learn about the forms and relationships of objects, especially since they remain still, allowing children to observe closely. As they work, students will focus on mixing and creating their own colors, exploring how to bring their compositions to life. This exercise will deepen their understanding of color theory while helping them develop their own unique artistic style.
For the final project of the session, students will create their own mobile sculptures, inspired by the work of American artist Alexander Calder. Known for suspending his three-dimensional pieces from the ceiling, Calder allowed his mobiles to float freely in space, creating dynamic and ever-changing forms. In this project, children will experiment with movement, balance, and design, crafting their own mobiles that come to life through air and motion.
