Kids’ Workshops (2-hours), appropriate for all ages Families with children as young as infancy are strongly encouraged to attend. This creative, hands-on educational workshop is specifically for parents and their children. The Kids’ Workshop consists of two parts: First, parents learn how children perceive hemophilia at different ages and varying levels of understanding. The primary focus of the parent presentation is to demonstrate how children learn through play. Parents are provided with inventive tools and unique strategies for teaching their children. Second, parents and children come together to participate in interactive learning stations that facilitate learning about bleeding disorders. Parents will experience how readily doors to communication open through the educational practice of play.
Hemophilia Basics (45 minutes), appropriate for ages 0-6 Get ready, get set, and go! Learn about hemophilia through art, music, and gross motor activities. This program curriculum was designed to introduce basic hemophilia concepts to young children. Animated activities, such as mixing factor to music, captivate an audience of young learners as they explore fundamental information about their bleeding disorder.
Fitness and Exercise (1 hour), appropriate for ages 3 through adult Supporting a focus on fitness, the Karing for Kids program now offers a fitness and exercise program that is targeted to specific age groups. Interactive games, a variety of activities, and upbeat music demonstrate how exercise can be fun, as well as beneficial in achieving individual fitness goals.
My Amazing Blood (45 minutes), appropriate for ages 7–10 Explore the circulatory system during a session of My Amazing Blood. The circulatory race, coagulation slime, and blood sundaes are a few of the activities designed to entice school-age children to learn about blood and bleeding disorders.
Junior Scientist (45 minutes), appropriate for ages 9-15 We have updated our Junior Scientist program, which is targeted for 9 to 15-year- olds. This program includes new hands-on activities where the "scientists" research to learn about dominant and recessive traits in humans. A chromosome-matching activity and building a double helix model of DNA help the kids learn about their unique genetic code. At the end of the workshop, the "scientists" get to do a final experiment that allows them to isolate their own DNA and view it in a test tube.
