Early Childhood Program
SIMPLICITY IS THE FOCUS OF BE ME PROGRAMS.
BE ME is an individual custom made program that is presented to educators and children in early childhood services by one of our BE ME facilitators.
BEING MINDFUL DOES NOT NEED TO BE COMPLICATED.
The program starts with a complimentary session with the director or manger of the organisation to decide what specific needs they have for their particular service.
The BE ME Program consists of sessions for both the educators and the children.
The educators sessions provide them with simple tools and strategies to explore mindfulness themselves, as well as information about the benefits of the program and practical ideas for themselves and the children.
Educators will be given programming ideas and links to EYLF and NQF frameworks.
The sessions for the children are tailor-made for the specific service with all ages catered for from birth to school age.
BE ME also encourages the educators to be involved in the childrens sessions with the facilitators.
“We completed the BE ME mindfulness session with our preschool children. The songs and the messages really resonated with our children and they were excited to sing along quickly picking up the words and actions. We noticed that children were active participants with the breathing techniques modelled by the facilitator who communicated with the children in an age appropriate way. We also noticed conversations about mindfulness have been taking place regularly within our classroom. The children enjoyed this session so much that we’ve incorporated it into our daily routine.”
