Creating Vision Boards With Your Children

1/11/2018

By: Teresa Robinson, R-CYT & Peace Play Graduate

​Vision boarding is a fun and creative way to teach children goal planning. A vision board is a collage of cutout pictures, words, and phrases that affirm or correlate to your goals, or anything you want to accomplish or acquire. Vision boards put the Law of Attraction in motion, which, simply put, is the ability to attract into our lives whatever we focus on. By creating a vision board, children create a daily visual reference to remind them of their goals and what they are working to achieve.  
​

Though people of all ages benefit from having a vision board, this activity is especially beneficial to children because it teaches them how to look forward to what they want to accomplish, and provides a plan for them to succeed. Vision board parties provide a delightful atmosphere of bonding, self-reflection, and intention-setting. Having children create a vision board is a fun and creative way to get them thinking about and planning their future!
​ 


What you will need:
·        poster board
·        blank paper
·        magazines
·        scissors
·        glue sticks
·        markers or colored pencils
·        other available arts & crafts supplies (stickers, glitter, etc).
 
To get started:
1.      Have children sit quietly for a few moments to center.
2.      Offer a brief introduction or explanation of the purpose of the vision board they will 
          make.
3.      Provide a sheet of paper for notes on what they want to accomplish this year.
4.      Search through magazines; cut out pictures, words, phrases, images, etc.
5.      Glue the cutouts to the board in any way desired. Be creative! This will be a daily
​          reminder of what you are working towards, so make it appealing to the eye!
6.      Next, it’s time to state those intentions out loud, for the Universe to hear! Offer the
​         option to present their boards to the group.
7.      Place vision board somewhere in the home where it will be seen every day (e.g.
​         hang/mount on bedroom wall, like a poster).

Vision boards are living documents and can be revisited/updated at any time, as needed/desired.
