After the pandemic, therapists world wide saw a huge increase in anxiety in children. Schools implemented emotional regulation programs and for a group of children this helped to make a difference, but for the younger children as well as the more sensitive children it was not enough.
I am a play therapist in a public school and I saw a lot of anxious children. I did research and experimented with therapeutic techniques and thus, Healing Honeys was born.
Our aim, first and foremost is to help children.
We know that getting a child to "actively do" something has a much bigger effect than trying to make them understand concepts like, "you don't need to be afraid".
We provide them with a tool to work through whatever their worry or anxiety is. A tool that they can play with!
Children learn, communicate and process through play. We want to empower them by giving them an effective resource.
All products are handmade, using the best quality wood and non-toxic paint. They are finished with care to ensure many hours of play.
We strive to supply a safe and effective resource to enrich the lives of all the children who use our products.
Our Team consist of:
Adél: Play therapist, co-painter, marketing and sales
Oom Johan: Pensioner, woodworking engineer and artist
Oom Kobus: Pensioner, painter, visionary, planning and quality control
May our Honeys help you heal.
