Kind Hands Massage Stories and Songs for families
​
Kind Hands offers activities for children in their early years and their parents and carers, utilizing massage stories and nurturing touch through nursery rhymes and songs. The Kind Hands Massage Stories and Songs program provides instructors with tools to assist parents and educators in creating massage stories and songs tailored to the needs of children aged 2 to 6.
The program aims to promote children's development through play, instil specific values, and help parents and educators enhance communication and language with children by offering nurturing massages that provide physical and emotional benefits.​
​​​
Research has shown that loving touch stimulates the release of oxytocin, often referred to as the "love hormone," which promotes feelings of happiness and bonding. At the same time, it helps reduce cortisol levels, alleviating stress and anxiety.
​
In our Kind Hands program, children will engage in fun, interactive massage activities using simple strokes on the back woven into nursery rhymes, songs, and stories. This clothed, child-to-child and parent-to-child massage approach:
​
- Fosters healthy communication and social development
- Encourages people and child bonding
- Promotes relaxation and reduces stress
​​
If you are parents/guardians, please join us for a unique and enjoyable experience that will bring you and your child closer together. We look forward to sharing the benefits of Kind Hands with you!
Book your spot now and get ready for a memorable day!
