Heroic Kids: A Journey of Courage, Growth, and Discovery
"Heroic Kids is an idea whose time has come - we need creative and innovative solutions to support our children more than ever before, and Heroic Kids provides the support that children and families need in an exciting, safe, creative way that connects with children's inner wisdom." - Nikki Giant, founder of The Spark
​
Heroic Kids is a program to help children become the hero of their own story, embarking on an adventure filled with challenges, self-discovery, and transformation. Heroic Kids is more than a program—it’s a call to adventure, inspired by Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey, designed to help children cultivate resilience, emotional intelligence, and a deeper connection to the natural world, others and themselves.
​
Answering the Call to Adventure
Just like the heroes in great myths and legends, every child begins in the Ordinary World, where they feel a longing for something more. The Call to Adventure appears as challenges—self-doubt, fear, uncertainty. In Heroic Kids, we invite children to step into their own journey, to explore the wild unknown of nature and their inner world.
​
Guided by Mentors and Spirit Guides
No hero ventures alone. Just as Luke Skywalker had Obi-Wan, and Moana had her grandmother’s wisdom, children in Heroic Kids are guided by Ember, a wise mentor who teaches them how to navigate life’s challenges using self-trust, awareness, and courage. Along the way, they meet the Wild Guardians—animal guides like the fox (adaptability), eagle (perspective), and bear (strength)—who help them understand their own heroic qualities.
​
Trials and Challenges: Building Inner Strength
The hero’s journey is never easy. Whether it’s getting lost in the forest like River and Sky in The Path of the Lost Lantern, or facing fear and self-doubt in The Guardian’s Challenge, children enrolled in this program experience obstacles that mirror real-life emotional struggles. But just like true heroes, they learn to overcome these trials—using mindfulness, problem-solving, and resilience—to find their way forward.
​
Returning with the Elixir: Growth and Transformation
Every great hero returns home, transformed by their journey. In Heroic Kids, children take the lessons they’ve learned—courage, emotional balance, and self-trust—back into their daily lives, becoming leaders in their communities, families, and friendships.
