Elements of MindGarden
The Walnut
The Child’s Mind as a Seed
Just as a walnut holds the full blueprint of the tree within its shell, so too does a child come into the world with hidden potential, waiting to emerge.
🫚 The Roots
Attachment as the Growing Ground
These roots represent the stages of attachment—those sacred, relational milestones through which a child comes to rest in our care.
🌱 The Leaves
Emergence Over Instruction
Delicate at first, but full of promise. These leaves symbolize the human potentials that arise when a child feels safe, known, and loved.
