Does your child carry big emotions — but struggle to talk about it?

Feelings Are Fun is India's small-group online art therapy programme for children aged 8–14 — eight sessions that give them the tools to understand, name, and express their emotions through art, play, and guided reflection.

🎨 The Saturday Batch is confirmed — Saturdays 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM IST, starting 8 August 2026 · live on Zoom · limited to 8 children.

Led by Divya Batra Masiwal · Art Therapist & Psychologist Mentor · 12+ Years Creating Safe Spaces

Children holding up emotion cards — excited, worried, calm — during a Feelings Are Fun art therapy session

We've spent a generation getting better at raising children: children who can solve, perform, and compete.

Yet most parents we meet are asking some version of the same questions:

  • How will my child survive in this world?
  • Can he handle failure when it comes?
  • Will she be able to handle disappointments?
  • How will they hold themselves with confidence?

Emotional vocabulary is the thing we are still learning ourselves — and teaching our children is another task entirely. We then expect them to have words for it the moment a big feeling arrives. They reach for it. But it isn't there.

So they reach for whatever's nearest: the slammed door, the silence, the meltdown, the “I'm fine.”

Feelings Are Fun gives children the language — and the space — to find it.

Does your child do any of these?

  • Shuts down or goes silent when something is wrong
  • Gets angry or upset but can't explain why
  • Says “I'm fine” — but clearly isn't
  • Struggles with friendships, big transitions, or self-doubt
  • Finds it hard to ask for help or talk about feelings

If you nodded at even one of these — this programme was designed for them.

A safe space to explore themselves and the world around them.

Feelings Are Fun is a small-group online programme where children aged 8–14 use art — drawing, collage, colour, movement — to explore and understand their inner world.

No art skills needed. No pressure to talk. Just a safe, creative space where feelings are welcome, and every child gets seen.

Each session is 90 minutes, held online in a small group of up to 8 children, facilitated by a trained art therapist.

By the end of 8 sessions, your child will have:

  • A personal vocabulary for their emotions — words and images that are theirs
  • Tried-and-tested calming and self-expression tools they can use on their own
  • More confidence in social situations and relationships
  • A felt sense that their feelings are valid — and manageable
  • And honestly? They'll have had fun doing it.

A group programme, or 1:1 therapy — which is right for your child?

We offer both, so this is an honest answer — not a sales pitch.

Feelings Are Fun — small-group programme

  • Best for building emotional vocabulary and everyday coping skills — before things feel heavy
  • Children see peers naming feelings too: “I'm not the only one who feels this way”
  • A gentle, low-pressure first experience of therapeutic support
  • ₹2,499 all-in for 8 sessions — clear, upfront pricing with no assessment fees or hidden charges

Individual (1:1) art therapy

  • Best when your child is navigating something specific — a loss, a big transition, persistent anxiety
  • The therapist's full attention, at a pace set entirely by your child
  • A private space for feelings that aren't ready for a group
  • Available at Artfelt as online or in-person (Mumbai) sessions

One honest caveat: this programme builds skills — it isn't a substitute for individual therapy if your child is struggling acutely. Not sure which fits? Message us and we'll tell you honestly — even if the answer is 1:1 sessions instead.

What they're saying

The session on triggers was like it was tailor-made for my child. She left with so much more confidence in talking about herself and the feelings she has.

Parent, Batch 1

I learnt so much in 90 minutes I didn't even know the time was over.

Participant, Batch 1

I loved the session, it was fun and interesting at the same time. I learnt about myself and I want to keep learning about this.

A note from Divya

Running Feelings Are Fun has shown me something I already believed — children don't need to be “in crisis” to benefit from this. They just need a space where their feelings are seen and heard. Using art lowers defenses like nothing else — we see true expression emerge every session.

If your child is navigating the complicated years of growing up, this is for them. I keep the group small on purpose — every child gets seen.

Looking forward to meeting your little one in August.
