An In-Person Event

Have you ever wondered whether it’s possible for kids to meditate? The good news is that it is – it just looks a little different to our perception that meditation is sitting still on a cushion.

We would be delighted to invite you to an afternoon of mindfulness and meditation activities suitable for children between the ages of 4 and 12 with their parents in aid of our new retreat centre Shubha Vihara.

About the Facilitator

Caragh is a sangha member since 2015 who has trained to teach kids and teens meditation. She also trained to teach adults to teach the kids they parent, mind or teach meditation. Using the senses, colour, nature and sometimes a favorite cuddly toy, the kids learn to bring attention to the present moment and connection with others in a playful way.

Who is the workshop for?

This workshop is suitable for children between the ages of 4 and 12 with their parents. It is best if the children are with others roughly around their age so can you indicate the age of your children when booking to allow us to plan.

For younger children or babies this afternoon’s workshop wouldn’t be suitable but we could organise something for parents and babies separately.

Likewise, if you have an older child or teen (13 and over) who may be interested in mindfulness and meditation please email info@dublinbuddhistcentre.org to let us know and we may be able to run a workshop for teenagers another time.

Booking Information

While booking is essential, please consider making a donation to help us to continue to provide these kinds of events. The suggested donation for this workshop is €50 per family.

There will need to be an adult present for each child/sibling group but the advantage is you will learn to do these activities with your children.

This event is now fully booked. Please email info@dublinbuddhistcentre.org to join a waiting list.
