Here's the thing...You didn't become a teacher to spend all day saying "no."

But somewhere between the rules, the mess concerns, and that voice in your head asking "what will parents think?" you became the person who's always shutting things down.

What if you could flip that?

What if your classroom could be a place where kids (and you!) hear "yes" way more often without it turning into total chaos?

Spoiler alert: It can.

In this workshop, you'll:

✔ Uncover why you're saying "no" so much (hint: it's not because you're mean)
✔ Learn the "yes, and..." method that keeps kids safe AND gives them freedom
✔ Practice real scenarios so you're ready when a kid asks to paint the playground
✔ Build confidence to explain your "yes-friendly" classroom to families (and administrators)

You don’t have to say YES to everything, but the “yes, and…” method will keep you from all those automatic nos! You’ll create a space with a deep respect for children where they can actually learn, explore, and grow.

What You'll Get:

🎁 Live 90-minute virtual workshop with time for Q&A
📄 PDF Guide: "From No to Yes" — Real reasons teachers say no, and how to reframe them
📊 Yes Tracker Template — A simple tool to build awareness of your yes/no patterns (no judgment, just data!)
💌 Follow-up email series — Reflection prompts and small challenges to keep the momentum going after the workshop
Real scenario practice cards - 5-10 common situations you can use for team discussions or self-reflection

This is for you if:

• You're exhausted from being the behavior police all day

• You want kids to be more independent, but you're not sure how to let go

• You're worried about what families (or your director) will think

• You know play-based learning works, but the "nos" keep slipping out anyway

• You're ready to make a small change that creates a HUGE impact
