Bring Calm, Creativity & Confidence to Your Child's Summer

FAQ

What age is Calm & Connection Camp for?

Global Calm Camp is designed for children aged 7–12. The activities are flexible and inclusive, with plenty of space for creativity and personal expression.

What if my child is shy or nervous?

That’s absolutely okay — many kids are! The sessions are welcoming and gently paced. There’s never any pressure to speak unless your child wants to. It’s a safe space to just be.

What if my child doesn’t usually enjoy online sessions or struggles to stay engaged?

This isn’t a typical online camp! Calm Camp is screen-light, creative, and hands-on — with plenty of time for movement, art, journaling, and quiet reflection away from the screen. Sessions are short and varied, with regular breaks and gentle guidance to keep kids engaged.

What if we can’t attend live?

No problem. All group sessions are recorded and made available for replay. Your child can follow along at their own pace with the downloadable workbook.

What do we need to prepare?

Just some basic art supplies (paper, pens, pencils or colours), a quiet space, and an open mind! You’ll receive a welcome email with simple prep tips and login info before camp begins.

Will this help with back-to-school confidence?

Yes! The combination of mindfulness, creativity, and light academic refreshers/next academic year prep (like spelling, maths, and languages) helps children feel more calm, focused, and ready for the school year.

Is this suitable for neurodivergent or sensitive children?

Yes. The camp is designed to be trauma-sensitive, playful, and adaptive. I bring my background in SEN support and counselling training to ensure every child feels safe and supported.

Is the camp safe for my child to participate in?

Yes — the Calm & Connected Camp is designed as a gentle, nurturing space with light movement, mindfulness, storytelling, and creative play. All sessions are led by a DBS-checked facilitator, and HeroflowJourney follows safeguarding practices in line with the UK government's Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance. A supervising adult must be nearby during each session, and parents remain responsible for their child’s safety and well-being throughout. However, please be aware:

• I am not a licensed therapist or certified yoga instructor.
• Activities are offered as invitations only — your child is encouraged to follow their own pace.
• Some breathing exercises may not be suitable for children with certain conditions (e.g., asthma).
• It is the parent or guardian’s full responsibility to assess whether participation is appropriate for their child.
• An adult must be nearby at all times for safety and safeguarding.
• Neither I nor HeroflowJourney can accept responsibility for any injuries or health concerns that may arise during or after participation.
