What the Children Experience

Engaging, Expressive Storytelling

The session begins with a dynamic reading of Lil’ Crowns Big Confidence. Children are encouraged to:

Repeat affirmations aloud
Identify with characters
Answer simple comprehension questions
Engage emotionally with the storyline

The reading is interactive, not passive.

Confidence Conversations (Age-Appropriate)

After the story, children participate in guided discussion:

What makes your hair special?
How do you feel about your crown?
What do you say when someone says something unkind?

These conversations build vocabulary around identity, emotions, and self-worth.

Affirmation Activation

Children stand, repeat crown affirmations together, and practice speaking positively about themselves. This reinforces:

Self-belief
Emotional regulation
Positive self-talk

The goal is repetition that rewires narrative early.

Creative Extension Activity

Depending on the setting, children may:

Color crown-themed activity sheets
Design their own “confidence crown”
Complete a simple texture wheel
Create a mini affirmation card to take home

This anchors the message through tactile learning.
