Thought Radio Part II For Kids And Teens: Turn Down The Noise

This is a free online program with Skye Zentz and in partnership with the Slover Library. It is only open to Kids and Teens. You can register for the event here.

 

We also offer an adult version of this program, which begins on August 18th. You can register for that here. This particular session is reserved for kids/teens.

In a busy world of technological connectivity, we are constantly being bombarded with the suggestions and opinions of other people.

All the noise of these outside influences can make it hard to navigate our own personal realities. In ThoughtRadio, we’ll explore our emotional selves while taking the time to play with different perspectives outside of our own.

We’ll discuss and celebrate the beauty of our unique-ness and give voice to the discomfort of being labeled and judged unfairly by others. We’ll listen to a variety of musical styles and use both individual and group writing exercises. Ultimately, we will create original songs that embody a variety of emotions within our own personal ThoughtRadios. In doing so, we’ll work on finding the “dial” to tune in to more helpful messages and turn down the ones that aren’t serving us.
