Identifying emotions, recognizing triggers and being aware of the why
The goal of this box is to expand your ability to identify your emotions. A good emotional vocabulary and a steady self-reflection . Definitely, you cannot manage emotions you are not aware of and you can’t empathise with other people’s feelings until you can understand your own.
Brainbow Box combines neuroscience-based coaching services through experiential learning thematic artsy crafty projects and emotional intelligence building storytelling. Children will learn valuable life skills such as Improved Social Skills, Better Self-esteem, Responsible Decision Making & Problem Solving, Embracing Change, Creative & Critical Thinking, and many more.
Each month’s box has a unique theme; in this Box ‘Zones of Regulation’, your child will learn what Emotional Self Awareness is. They will learn skills to notice and label feelings, emotions, listen to their “gut-level” instincts or reactions; understand where is it coming from; recognize their effects on their mind and your body; using their feelings as a valuable source of insight and information about themselves, others and the situations around them.
We also help all children better recognise, understand, label, express & regulate their emotions! In this box, we will be discovering the Feeling Surprised.
This program will make a vital contribution to your child’s life. It will enhance your child’s ability to form stable, supportive relationships and enjoy greater well-being as well as academic performance. Developing a child’s emotional intelligence plays a key role in raising happy, resilient and well-adjusted kids and adults one day.

HOW DOES BRAINBOX TEACH EQ VIA ART AND CRAFT?
Art and creation can be a wonderful therapeutic experience for a child developing their emotional intelligence and emotional regulation skills.
In every project, we will first introduce a child friendly topic that contains EQ components and skills, and an Art & Craft Project later on that aligns and connects with what they have learned earlier.
Our Storytelling is done by our ISEI qualified coach Denee. We engage children via role play and narrative storytelling.
An example: The chosen topic of the day would be “Good Character”. The Brainbow Box will then have a theme that resonates with the topic. Using “Ocean” as our theme, we combine both “Good Character” and “Ocean”, hence the objective of our box: “Dive Into Your Character”.
What is Emotional Intelligence (EQ) and why is it so important? Why should we teach our children emotional intelligence?
Research has shown that “students with higher emotional intelligence are better prepared in managing their emotional lives, and because of that, they can focus, learn and do their best in school.” (Yale Centre for Emotional Intelligence). We should never underestimate the way our children understand the world from a very young age. Their brains grow at such a rapid rate, constantly noticing, reacting and adapting to their environment based on their emotional experiences.
After understanding all these, it then poses a question. So, why do we put so much emphasis on teaching our children multiple academic subjects and day to day activities – and we neglect giving them emotional education that can dramatically improve the quality of their lives?
When you teach kids emotional intelligence, you are teaching them how to recognise their feelings, understand where they come from, and making them learn how to deal with such.
You are ultimately teaching them the most essential skill for success in life.
Emotions matter for all of us, and most especially for children. How we feel affects our learning, the decisions we make, how we treat others and our own personal well-being.
Children who learn how to do this have better results in school, an increased attention span, and reduced anxiety and depression. Helping our children develop their own emotional intelligence massively contributes to their individual success and well-being.
