Grow Club is a fun, welcoming workshop designed to help girls ages 8–13 learn about their amazing bodies before puberty and periods begin. Through interactive activities and open conversations, girls will learn basic anatomy, how their bodies grow and change, and how the menstrual cycle works. We’ll also talk about body and self confidence, using your voice to advocate for your needs, and how awesome and unique we all are!
This small group class will include 3 core lessons:
Foundations: We will discuss female anatomy, basic male anatomy, and general changes in puberty. Embracing differences in development will also be emphasized.
Cycles: We will go through all things menstrual cycle in this lesson including the basic stages of a menstrual cycle, preparing for your first period, and expectations around what having a period is like. We will also explore basic menstrual products and make a period kid to take home.
Confidence: To tie it all together, we will take time to reflect on how we talk to ourselves and the power of our voice. We will also practice how we use our voice with others and how we need to respect others’ voices too as we go through self-advocacy, consent, body-autonomy, and boundaries.
Plus, parents will be sent a copy of the manual so that they know what the class will involve and can reach out with questions at any time!
Grow Club for girls will be taught by Dr. Jacki Gilpin
