For our last Summer Fun on Wheels session, Jose created and pitched his own product. We both live in LA and have been talking about the amount of roaches there have been on the streets and our shared hatred of them. So he thought of this product called "Famuki's" which are sandals with a sensor to sense if you're about to step on or near a roach, and if it does, there's an insect spray that will spray towards and kill them. His slogan is heavily inspired by one of his favorite shows, K-Pop Demon Hunters: "You know we're going to be golden, really really killing those roaches." By the end of our session, he was really satisfied and proud of this product that he thought of!

Today Ariyana and I wrapped up the SEL Kindness and Happiness section. We talked about how self-care is important, at times you need to focus on yourself and making sure you're happy. We connected it to advocacy, knowing what makes you happy and knowing what you want is an important first step for advocating for yourself. If you want a job or to take a class, you can then let your wants and desires know and take action to realizing it. We both were successful in our days of kindness for others and found the experience to be rewarding.

We wanted to spend a little more time on today's session so catch up. Nathaniel had a perfect example of something that he has been working on with his Mom: printing the letter S. We decided to work on that some more and we used a special pad with helpful arrows. He struggled with the S -- making it large enough and not forming it backwards (which he recognized looked more like a 2). He's great -- doesn't get upset or frustrated, just keeps going. At the end he made a great S.

At the end of our session, we also tried the pen spinning. Nathaniel is a little young developmentally, but he did his best and had fun with it.

Ariyana and I talked about acts of kindness in depth. About the idea of how kindness is something that is passed along, when you do something kind for someone it makes their day, and makes them more likely to do an act of kindness themselves. We discussed a few things that made us happy recently, and discussed a plan for acts of kindness we were going to try to do over the next week to start chain reactions of kindness in our own lives.

For the "think outside the box" activity, we did the "this is not a cloud, it's a ___." Jose's first attempt wasn't satisfactory for him, so this was his second drawing. While he was drawing his frog, he explained to me the different kinds of frogs he knew- and this one is yellow and has dark spots on his skin. He also pointed out that they salivate so he drew that too. There were times he got frustrated because it wasn't turning out the way he wanted, but ultimately, he was very proud of his work!

After we watched Kid President's Youtube video, Jose and I talked about what inspires him to be creative.

We also talked about One Piece, which is his favorite anime (and the skull he drew is the mascot). This also sparks his creativity because the animation is vibrant and exciting.

7/22/26: Mairany had an easy time reflecting on moments of happiness and thinking of ways to be kind to others, but it took a lot of noodling to think of something to list for where she has received a kindness from others. This led us to chatting about how nice things can be very simple, and do not always have to be related to gifts. The thoughtfulness and kind gesture if the gift!

Today, Jahdiel and I started the session by sharing small things that made us happy today. He was happy to play his video games and practice a new soccer move, which he says he will continue working on until he gets it right.

We set small acts of kindness to complete this week. He said he would try to help out more in his community, especially by helping the older people in his neighborhood with their grocery bags when they come back from the market.

We ended the session by exploring this quote: " If you can’t pay it back, pay it forward.” by Catherine Ryan Hyde. He explained that to him this means creating a chain of kindness. Having good things happen to you in the future as you do good things today. I am excited to check in with him next week about his acts of kindness and explore more about how he felt doing those small acts.

Today, we explored our creativity more through transforming incomplete drawings. Kaitlyn was able to utilize her creativity to complete the half images into something spectacular. I was taken aback by how quickly she was able to create images that differed greatly from their original state.

We also worked on a brain map for one of her inventions. Her kind soul wanted to invent a system to distribute food. We mapped out all the logistics, including who it would serve, whether her invention would be operated by humans or machines, etc. It was amazing to see the whole process of her really thinking through her invention and all the little parts that made it come alive. Really looking forward to exploring her creativity further in the upcoming session.

When I asked her to come up with a phrase that could get her through challenging situations, she came up with, "I know I can do it, so I am going to just try." She really liked this phrase because she believes in herself a lot. We talked about how having a growth mindset can always get you to try harder and push further than what you think you can do.

Growth Mindset Session 3 Discussion:

The messages the motivational songs we listened to conveyed were that even though we may get put down by others or feel discouraged, it’s important to keep going and keep trying.

Growth Mindset lyrics (from The Climb by Miley Cyrus):

There's always gonna be another mountain

I'm always gonna wanna make it move

Always gonna be an uphill battle

Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

These songs made Layla feel upbeat and resilient. We agreed that music influences our mindset by validating our experiences and resonating with our emotions and feelings.

If Layla were to write a motivational song, the key message conveyed would be that of persistence and not giving up.
