Meditation for Kids ~ Happy to Be Thankful

Meditation for Kids
10 - 11:15am
Ages 5 - 12
Cost is by donation (suggested: $5)
​
Our children’s classes at KMC Phoenix teach kids how to meditate plus introduce them to foundational Buddhist concepts: how to connect to a sense of inner peace, to identify with our astounding potential, develop compassion and gratitude for the kindness of others, and let go of agitating states of mind like anger and jealousy. Regular attendance at these classes can assist kids with the development of important life skills such as increased empathy, respect for others, self control and concentration.
​
All classes include some guided brief meditation, a short prayer, practical teaching or story and a fun craft or game. These lessons in meditation and Buddhist teachings, can plant seeds in these young minds that will flower for years to come, giving them insight into the power we have to create our own experiences and to be a positive influence in the world.
​
The classes run simultaneously with the General Program class in our main meditation room, which many parents attend.
​
Parents must remain on the premises while their child is attending class.
