Calm Club Workshops

Helping children build emotional resilience through storytelling, creativity and play.

Calm Club is an interactive workshop where children learn to recognise their thoughts and feelings, discover how emotions influence behaviour, practise simple calming strategies, and transform their own artwork into a character they are proud to call their own.

Why Calm Club

Calm Club is so much more than just another workshop. It’s a place where children develop confidence, emotional awareness, and practical tools they can carry with them for life.

Children learn to:

✔ understand their thoughts and emotions

✔ develop healthy coping strategies

✔ express themselves creatively

A vibrant, cheerful digital illustration of a diverse group of twelve children and three whimsical characters standing together in a grassy green meadow under a bright, sunny sky with musical notes floating above them. Most of the characters are wearing matching oversized, colorful top hats striped with purple, blue, green, and pink, each featuring a stylized smiling face on the front and feathers tucked into the brim. The background features rolling green hills under a soft yellow and blue sunrise, creating a warm, inclusive, and joyful atmosphere for the Chit-Chat Calm Club workshops.

Hear from parents, children, and program coordinators who have experienced our workshops firsthand.

Wonderful and engaging workshop

This was a wonderful and engaging workshop that helped my daughter understand and express her emotions in a fun, age-appropriate way. She especially enjoyed the breathing exercise and the drawing activity and was so proud to receive a sticker of her drawing. It made the experience even more special.

Wajeeha F, Parent of a workshop participant

The workshop helped my son a lot with getting calm. In the weeks after, he looked at the guide when he got upset and practiced the easy to follow steps, which miraculously worked for him. He was also very proud of his stickers that remind him every now and then of the steps he can practice.

The Magical Transformation

Each child’s drawing is turned into a real cartoon character that they can proudly show to friends and family.
