Welcome To Emaho's Kompassionate Kids !
Children's Hour - 2007

Our gatherings are geared toward children ages 5-12 years old, but any child of any age is always welcome.   Our morning usually begins with a story discussion promoting the Paramitas, followed by arts and crafts or games that inspire compassion in action.   We also engage in Tibetan Yoga, environmental projects that support the Dharma teachings, as well as introductory breathing techniques and short meditations on mindfulness and loving kindness.

Please RSVP to Jasmine Nordman if you would like to attend, so that the appropriate number of materials are prepared.
