DHARMA KIDS PRACTICE GROUP 

October 2025 - June 2026

The Dharma Kids Practice Group is a program for children in grades K-6. Together, we explore the teachings of the Buddha and plant the seeds of compassion, loving kindness, and mindfulness, for the benefit of all. We practice various meditations, engage in dharma discussions and inquiry, play cooperative games, create dharma-inspired art, participate in service projects and cultivate friendships.  

The Dharma Kids program is under the direction of Lama Pema Clark, and is led by practice group leaders and parent volunteers. The sessions run from October 2025 - June 2026. We meet at KSC twice a month, from 9 am -11:30 am on KSC’s Calm Abiding and Tonglen Sundays. Our mornings begin together with the Lama led Dharma talk and then we separate by age groups. The younger group is for ages 5-8, and the older group, 9-13 years old. 

Our  leader team includes Ann and Clark Zimmerman, Malena Fitting, and Ian Luepker. We look forward to sharing this special time with you.

Dharma Kids fall/winter dates:

9:00 – 11:30 am (please arrive by 8:50 ish to get settled before the Lama talk)

Pre-registration is required

Class size is limited to 12 children for the younger group and 9 children for the older group.

We ask that parents be present at the Dharma Center, either upstairs in the Shrine room or with the Dharma Kids. This is a practice group (not a drop in program), as the continuity of regular attendance allows us to grow community and build a strong foundation with the teachings from week to week.
