Creative Crossings

20336 78th Pl. S.W. - Vashon, WA 98070

206-463-1682  |  website  |  email  

Creative Crossings mission is to help pre-teen girls cross over to adolescence with self-esteem intact! We have two main programs, but are always willing to custom design events and workshops relevant to the needs of your children. My Mother and Me is a four hour event that has been described by girls as "like camp, but with your mom!" We use art, discussion, and hand-on games to celebrate each unique relationship and discuss the dichotomy of support vs. independence. We have two mom/daughter events, one in Fall (October 20th), one in Spring (May 17th) as well as private group events. Please see our websitefor more information. "We Didn't Mean It" is a program that aims to decrease harassment between girls. We work with schools, dance studios, and a variety of other venues to help girls develop a range of choices when it comes to tough friendship decisions. Programs are facilitated by Peggy Rubens, a School Counselor and experiential educator.

Division or Responsibility

website  |  email  

Division or Responsibility is a group for parents and care givers who are following Ellyn Satter's division of responsibility. The ideology is that kids will self-regulate their intake of food. As a parent or caregiver, your job is to put healthy food on the table, and the child will eat what and how much his or her body needs to eat.
