Welcome to Our Personal Development Adventure!

Opening the Lesson: "The Magic Mirror"

Introduction

🌟 Good morning, friends! Today, we are going to embark on a special adventure in personal development. Before we dive in, let’s start with an exciting activity called “The Magic Mirror.”

What You'll Need

• A large mirror (or a reflective surface)
• Colorful markers or stickers
• A big piece of craft paper

Activity Steps

1. Gather Around the Magic Mirror
   Invite everyone to sit in a circle around the mirror. As they gather, encourage them to think of something they like about themselves. It could be a talent, a trait, or even a smile!

2. Reflecting on Positivity
   One at a time, let each child look into the mirror and say their positive thought out loud. For example, they might say, "I am a good friend" or "I am a great artist." This will help build their confidence and self-awareness.

3. Decorating Our Reflection
   After all the children have shared, provide them with colorful markers or stickers. Each child will decorate the big piece of craft paper with their name and words or images that represent their positive qualities.

Wrap-Up

At the end of the activity, display the colorful craft paper together so everyone can see all the wonderful things that make each of them unique!

🌈 Discussion Questions:

• How did it feel to say something nice about yourself?
• Why is it important to think positively about ourselves?
• Can you think of a time when you helped a friend feel good about themselves?

Conclusion

✨ Today, we learned that our thoughts about ourselves matter! Remember, everyone is unique and special in their own way. Let’s continue to nurture our self-love and shine bright together!

Now, are you ready to explore more about what makes you, YOU? Let's get started!
