THE EXPERIENCE
At this age, the brain is wiring for identity. The way you connect now stays with him - shaping his confidence, his sense of belonging, and how he remembers being loved.
In nature, where attention softens and pressure lifts, you’ll move through story, movement, and simple rituals that bring you back to what matters. You’ll see your son with fresh eyes. He’ll feel it. And that moment changes everything.

Every rite of passage begins with a choice.
This is yours. Spark Circle stays with you - in the way you speak, the way you walk forward, side by side.
