Creative Cuddles

For Kids — and Kids at Heart

The Creative Cuddles experience is a playful, hands-on experience where participants create their very own stuffed companion while learning simple, meaningful tools for emotional awareness, stress relief, and connection.

Whether you’re 7 or 70, there’s something powerful about building something soft, comforting, and uniquely yours. Through creativity, guided reflection, and light-hearted conversation, participants explore feelings, practice calming tools, and reconnect with their inner creativity in a safe and welcoming space.

This workshop can be designed for children, families, teens, adults reconnecting with their inner child, or even lighthearted birthday celebrations — with each experience thoughtfully customized to meet the needs and goals of the group.

What to Expect

Participants will:

• Create and personalize a stuffed comfort companion
• Learn simple emotional check-in tools
• Practice easy calming strategies (breathing, grounding, movement)
• Reflect on how to respond to “big feelings” in healthy ways
• Leave with a companion that serves as a reminder of safety and self-care

For younger audiences, the focus is playful emotional literacy.
For adults, the workshop can include stress regulation, inner child reflection, and resilience-building themes.

Perfect For

• Schools and youth programs
• Family events

Customized to Your Needs

Each Creative Companion Workshop is tailored based on:

• Age group

The heart of the experience remains the same: connection, creativity, and confidence — wrapped in something soft.
