Practical tools, research insights, and creative programs — designed to bring child development science into everyday life.
Publication
pip o. Gazette
Our flagship publication translates cutting-edge research into readable, actionable insights for parents, educators, and practitioners. Each issue explores a theme central to positive child development — from emotional intelligence and school readiness to resilience and the science of play.
An art studio initiative where creativity meets social-emotional learning. Through guided artistic expression, children explore their inner worlds, develop self-awareness, and build the emotional vocabulary they need to connect with others.
CREATIVE PROGRAM
Art as a Language for Kindness
Not every child can say what they feel. But many can draw it, paint it, or sculpt it. The pip o. Studio and pip o. Project use creative arts as a bridge between children’s inner emotional experience and the outer world — giving them a safe, joyful space to process, express, and grow.
Rooted in the same research principles as our training programs, this initiative makes social-emotional learning accessible to children who learn best through doing, making, and creating.
Workshops & Community Programs
Beyond our formal training programs, we offer accessible workshops and community initiatives for families and organizations across Canada and internationally.
Parent Workshops
Practical, judgment-free sessions for parents and caregivers — exploring topics like emotional coaching, positive discipline, building secure attachment, and talking to children about hard things.
Educator Professional Development
PD sessions designed for teaching staff — covering social-emotional learning integration, classroom emotional climate, and strategies for supporting children with diverse developmental needs.
Community Initiatives
Collaborative programs with schools, community centres, and family services organizations — bringing evidence-based child development knowledge directly to the neighbourhoods where families live.
