About Joy Circles
Introduction
Childhood is a sacred stage of life. And preteens sit at a critical crossroads of life, when they can use extra skills and tools to help them navigate the challenges of growing up.
Joy Circles® was created to bring important skills to children and their families to serve them through the preteen years and beyond
What is Joy Circles®?
Joy Circles® is a mindset that has generated both a transformational program and a dynamic web series designed for 9-13-year-olds that positively impacts their self-confidence, communication, reading, and self-management skills. Joy Circles accomplishes this by utilizing contemporary fiction, models, and interactive group activities.
What is The Joy Circles Gang?
The Joy Circles Gang is a dynamic new web series launching this February with live actors on the Joy Circles Gang App, then eventually on Roku, Apple+ TV, Android, iOS. Four preteen friends gather weekly in their makeshift clubhouse with their older friend, Alex, to enjoy music, monkey-business, and wisdom about growing up strong, kind and confident.
More information can be viewed under the Joy Circles Gang drop down menu about free trials, subscription levels, and the add-on programs like Reading Rumble and TranscenDance for Kool Kids (Preteens)!
Circles foster community and communication, serving social and emotional purposes. It’s a place where young people feel safe, valued, and heard. When gathered in a circle, everyone is equal and engaged.
