Celebrating a child in the lead up to and on their birthday is so magical.
I’ve worked with many clients who can think of nothing else, so why would we fight that enthusiasm?! Listen deeply, hear, reflect and be curious.
 
An excited child shares their soul when given the opportunity.
 
This template gives the open ended opportunity to look back over the year and also start thinking about the year ahead.
 
Here are some suggestions and prompts:
Explore and recognise all the child’s strengths.
Encourage conversation about newly acquired skills and growth.
What was a favourite part, holiday, memory, friendship of the past year
What are they looking forward to being a year older?
How are birthdays celebrated at home/school?
