Day 4: Let's look at a fun way to learn what we're like - by reading comics!
We found an interesting comic strip on JennyDrewSomething that depicts our attachment styles in a playful way. Check out the site that melds art and meaningful communication, creating fun narratives. Have fun!
The webmaster is an author and Preventions Keyworker for B&NES Youth Offending Service, and she had always loved comics. Since obtaining her Advanced Diploma in the Therapeutic Application of the Arts, she have been using cartoons as a therapeutic storytelling tool with young people. More than just sci-fi and superheroes, everyday narratives and themes can be explored through text and image, in a way that is accessible and unthreatening. Through understanding this visual language, young people are able to express their own ideas using the comic form.
What a year - what goes on from here?
