Description:
Little Ears, Big Futures: Sensory Play for Kids’ Resilience
This playful workshop for children adapts Wellbeing Academy’s trauma-informed yoga and mindfulness, focusing on sensory health through sound games, gentle ear massages, and group listening circles. Kids aged 5-12 learn to tune into sounds, regulate emotions with breathwork, and build auditory resilience—preventing overload while sparking joy and focus. Perfect for schools or family events, it echoes WHO’s 2026 World Hearing Day call for early childhood hearing care.

Impact Story: Little Ears, Big Futures
Seven-year-old Mia struggled with focus in Zagreb’s noisy classrooms, overwhelmed by sounds she couldn’t filter—until Wellbeing Academy’s “Little Ears, Big Futures” workshop for World Hearing Day 2026. Through breathwork, mindfulness, and sensory walking tours with guided listening, she learned to tune into subtle sounds and regulate emotions. No more meltdowns; Mia now thrives: reading fluently, joining choir, with 80% better focus per teachers. Parents report joyful confidence. These tools sparked lifelong resilience—proof sensory health empowers kids.
