The Beehive Alliance Partners presents our annual free back-to-school Bee Kind Back-To-School Kick Off mental welness fair in Columbus Ohio. Bee Kind Back-to-School Kick Off Created in 2021 as a response to increasing back-to-school anxiety, we are excited for our 5th annual FREE mental wellness fair! Get ready for a fun and meaningful day where children will build their very own mental health toolbox filled with helpful tools and strategies they can use all school year long! Kids will explore hands-on activities, learn ways to take care of their minds and hearts, and discover how being kind to themselves can help them spread kindness to others. Meanwhile, caregivers can connect with community experts and gather resources to support their children's mental wellness. Join us as we kick off the school year feeling strong, supported, and ready to thrive! This fun & engaging event will include activities like yoga, kindness kits to be donated, affirmation pictures, kindness rocks, a take-home plant, information and resources from partners, and more! Children will create a toolkit of mental health strategies that can be used all year, and caregivers will have the opportunity to get resources from our community partners. 1 day to the event Party In the Patch: Squashing Stigmas Together Thu, Oct 09 Buy Tickets Join us August 17th! *Event to be rescheduled.
