Celebration Day for Girls
A workshop for mothers and daughters.
Many of us missed out on a positive and well-informed start to puberty and periods, and have dealt with secrecy and embarrassment for many years. Research has shown that if girls experience a negative approach to their changing body and the menstrual cycle, they can grow up with:
​
-
lowered self-confidence when their period starts
-
embarrassment or disgust about their body
-
a reluctance to talk about health or body issues
-
a lack of useful and positive information
-
compromised self-care and well-being. ​
To prevent this, Celebration Day for Girls has been carefully crafted to offer a beautiful and fun day for 10-12-year-old girls and their mother/female carer so you can both feel informed, confident and open about her changes.
"What a warm afternoon. Recommended for families with daughters. May the next generation of girls be more comfortable with their bodies and live out their potential." - Ding Ding (Mother)
"In addition to my daughter's harvest of knowledge, I also recieved a lot under Valentina's guidance. Sharing the experience of menarche that I almost forgot with my daughter, thinking about my fear when I was a child, and looking forward to my daughter's uncoming menarche... I think this workshop is worth it." - Fei Yan (Mother)
"Thank you Valentina, for leading the sessions that let our girls have a relaxed atmosphere to learn this very important material. It was healing and nourishing even for me in the process." - Zi Xuan (Mother)
