Creative Art For Wellbeing Method for Schools & Businesses | Jodie Smith - UK.
There is something magical that happens when a room full of people pick up a crayon and just start doodling!
Happy Doodles focuses on self-expression, emotional wellbeing, and connection. Drawing on the Happy Doodles Method, our sessions use accessible, low-pressure art activities, doodling, mark-making, and creative prompts, to help participants explore their feelings, spark imagination, and build confidence in a supportive environment.
Licensable workshop programs tailored for schools, community groups, councils, and organisations. Designed to be inclusive, playful, and process-led, prioritising participation and personal growth over perfect outcomes.
If you’d like to explore how the Happy Doodles Method could work for your group or organisation, please get in touch!

“What a pleasure it was to welcome Jodie into our preschool to share her wonderful story with the children. Mindfulness and mental health are topics we strive to incorporate into everyday practice, so this visit and mindfulness workshop went a long way in supporting all that we’re striving to achieve.”
Summer, Newport Pre-school Manager.
"The children loved our session with Happy Doodles! Talking about our emotions and how we feel about starting school, we drew colours around ourselves relating to the emotions of the colour monster and Jodie’s book 'bipolar blob’. We are really looking forward to having another session with Happy Doodles in the future! Thank you, Jodie"
