Emotion Explorers

Monster Emotions

Join us as we use art to learn about our emotions, practice resilience, and learn coping skills.

Intended for pre-school-aged children and their grown-up, participants in this program will read The Color Monster by Anna Llenas and explore how emotions can look and feel different from one another. Through a guided coloring activity, participants will design their own color monster and use colors, patterns, and facial expressions to represent different emotions.

This program is being led by a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate from Mental Health America of Northeast Indiana. Mental Health America of Northeast Indiana (MHANI) is an advocacy and education non-profit organization founded in 1954 whose mission it is to promote the mental and emotional health of the community by offering advocacy, education, support services, and hope.
