My Name Is Trauma
My Name is Trauma (MNIT) creates an opportunity to learn about Trauma in a way that is educational and practical, and also playful and imaginative. “Trauma The Tiger” is used to represent the effects of trauma in the body and the natural impact that a traumatizing experience can have on a child.
The approach helps children externalize a traumatizing experience so that they can normalize its impact on their lives. Creative interventions that are sensory based are discussed and explored as the best way to regulate and calm emotions, create resilience, and move from victim to survivor.
Qi Sensory Behaviour Detective
Qi Sensory Behaviour Detective shares that behaviour is neither good nor bad; and is the result of the environment and situational context that surrounds a person.
It provides an understanding as to why children behave, react, and learn differently based on these factors; how becoming a sensory behaviour detective helps to discover the different sensory needs that motivate children to learn positive behaviours; and how to adapt the environment to avoid sensory stimuli that can trigger a challenging behaviour.
