Nurturing the Seed of Infinite Potentialities in Every Child
WONDER LAB
Social-Emotional Development
through Art and Play
With no right or wrong and a variety of mediums and forms, art allows us to express ourselves without judgement, in ways we can learn from and enjoy. We believe this makes art a perfect way to promote social-emotional development in children and youth!
The pip o. Wonder Lab team develops curriculum and activities which promote social-emotional development through art, play, and imagination. We work with schools and community organizations to encourage each child’s artistic potential and sense of wonder while teaching new techniques. Participants engage in discussion about topics such as kindness and emotion regulation.

These interactive art sessions were developed by a team of educators, community engagement specialists, and psychologists and include evidence-informed strategies to promote social-emotional development for children.
During each session, facilitators guide children through a series of art sessions. The sessions will encourage each child’s artistic potential while fostering their social-emotional development. Throughout the activities, students will also engage in discussion about topics such as empathy and emotion regulation.
