WELCOME TO CATALYSE
BE THE CHANGE
The Catalyse Book
The Catalyse book holds a treasure trove of benefits, wrapped in a beautifully illustrated and captivating package that children of all ages find fun, appealing, and engaging.
By scanning the QR code inside the cover, Catalyse transitions from a book to an experience. Accompanied by a musical track and a movement video, the Catalyse book provides opportunity for readers to engage and participate in creative expression, whilst developing crucial physical, emotional and language skills.
This book cleverly bridges the gap between coffee table, theatre, and education. At face value it is an engaging colourful collection of fun and games, but underneath the true value reveals itself. The metaphor, rhyme, alliteration, and rhythm of the poems assist language development and comprehension. The accompanying movements develop co-ordination, strength, vestibular and proprioceptive abilities whilst the intention and affirmations associated with each poem facilitate self-reflection and emotional maturity and growth.
The definition of Catalyse is ‘to cause an action or process to begin’ and this book certainly delivers on its promise.
Inside The Book
A collection of 21 insightful and beautifully illustrated poems and affirmations bound together in a 48 page premium hard back publication.
The foundation of each poem is a carefully constructed message to instil the principles of self-awareness, responsibility and accountability around intention, action and positive change.
A QR code links to movement videos and music tracks to further enhance the reader experience and assist children to develop the motor and language skills necessary to reach developmental milestones.
The Poems
Language Development & Self Awareness
Enter a world of imagination, metaphor, rhyme, and rhythm.
The Catalyse poems assist language development, enhance literacy skills, and evoke emotion, self-reflection and awareness, to deepen the reader experience and further embed learning.
Children are introduced to affirmation as a tool to promote positive self talk, build confidence and self respect, and establish a positive mindset.
The Catalyse Signature Movement Video
Physical Development & Expression
The Catalyse Movement video comprises 21 unique movement sequences that match the poems and align with the messaging, furthering Catalyse as an interactive experience. These movements have been deliberately choreographed to challenge and develop gross motor function, build strength and flexibility and improve balance, coordination, fitness, and creative expression.
The 21 movement sequences can be performed independently or together as a 12-minute practise.
The Catalyse Signature Music Track
Multi-Sensory Experience
This encouraging and original music track rounds out Catalyse as a multi-sensory experience for its audience. Catalyse comes to life to enhance learning abilities and encourage cognitive development across all ages. Word sounds, sequencing, inflection, expression, vocabulary, comprehension, memory, focus, and imagination are all targeted and ignited through the simple art of active listening.
