class has the potential to be a transformational kick-
off to managing it and building self-worth! Through
funny and elaborate dramatizations like: Cotton

more, kids will garner 9 strategic tools to use after
they depart this workshop. Just for fun, we will also
learn the science of cotton candy and enjoy this
