After School Story and Craft: Mindfulness

Children age 3-12 are invited to come hear the beautiful story, The Three Questions , by Jon Muth. After the story, each child can make a set of tiny worry dolls to take home. Worry dolls are tiny handmade dolls used in the Guatemalan tradition. Children can whisper their worry to a doll at bedtime and then place the doll under their pillow. The doll will carry the worry away while the child sleeps so the child can awake with a peaceful mind.

From the publisher: "Jon J Muth combined his studies of Zen with his love for Tolstoy to create this profound, yet simple book about compassion and living in the moment."
