Hi Scarlett, tell us a little about yourself?

My name is Scarlett Venn – and I am 7 and 3 quarters!

I recently attended SoulKids in March 2015 at the Hollandaise Club

So Scarlett, tell me what did you like about SoulKids®?

I had fun

Do you have a favourite story and why?

I liked lots of stories:

‘The woodpecker’ because he is always focussing,

‘The Giant’ because it teaches you not to be afraid and

‘The Ants’ because the story is about working like as a team.

Wow – so many – that’s great to hear.

What is the most important life lesson you think people need to learn in today’s world?

People need to be kinder to other people and make the world a better place.

I totally agree – lets all start to do this today ;)

Have you thought about your life purpose?

My purpose is to be a scientist and a geologist

Wow impressive! And what is your mission?

My mission is to be friendly

Great! You will be the most friendly scientist and geologist ever I think!

Do you think you will achieve this once you become an adult?

Yes

So I do I. I am 100% certain ;)

What are the 3 main lessons you would teach to children just starting to learn at school?

Maths

Writing

Being Nice

Thanks Scarlett- we really think you are awesome and friendly and for sure will be a rock star scientist and geologist very soon!

SoulKids® STARS at Kidz Academy Suntec in June!

The excitement is building!

SoulKids® will be starring at Kidz Academy in Suntec on 5-7 June.

Already the press have been interviewing

Vikas & Sally the SoulKids founders to find out more.

Here is a sneak peek at the interview!

1.) Tell us about what inspired you to create the SoulKids programs?

For many years Vikas was coaching adults to live a happy and successful life.

He realized that many issues that we have as adults stemmed from a mindset and belief system that we have as children.

These beliefs have been given to us in childhood by our parents, teachers, peers and we simply never questioned them.

So we live a life on autopilot and never really live beyond these limiting beliefs.

Vikas decided to create a program, naming it SoulKids®, that would give children the skills they needed to create a life of happiness and fulfillment for themselves.

Skills that include;

How to be happy no matter what life presents
How to be a leader and a great team player
Self Confidence
How to grow your strengths and to follow your passion
How to have focus and disciple and to take correct action

2.) As SoulKids has grown, have the programs changed as well?

SoulKids® has great feedback systems in place from parents, children and our Mentors. We look at all the streams of feedback and improve the program each year.

The core concept remains the same but the method of delivery and the supporting materials and techniques are constantly being improved.

We apply a continual improvement process that means each year we get better and better.

2015 has been an amazing year as we won;

Licensor of the Year award by the Franchise Licensing Association in Singapore and
We won “Best in Class” for Life Skills Programs awarded by Harpers Bazaar

So we know we are on the right path and our results speak for the strength of the program.

3.) What are some of the challenges that you think parents face as they raise kids in today’s society?

The environment children are born in today is totally different to the one parents were born into.

The pace of change has never been faster than today.

The main issues parents will face is how to see the world through the eyes of their child without making judgements based on their own conditionings.

The past is gone and the new world ahead is exciting and changing at a speed not seen before. The old conditioned ways of working will not always bring success in the new world. So parents need to grow as their children grow.

How to raise children with different ideas, dreams and talents
How to raise children in a constantly evolving society
Teaching children the need for personal responsibility in this new world
Communication skills and team work in a world where you can do everything on your own.

Bringing children up to be able to succeed in the future world that we cannot as parents ever envisage.
