Cycle Prep: First Period for Girls Workshop - Waynesville, Ohio

Cycle Prep is a nationally acclaimed first-period workshop developed by Pearl & Thistle and offered locally through Small Things Fertility’s Heidi Schaap. This engaging, age-appropriate experience is designed for parents and daughters to learn together what’s really happening in her body as she approaches her first menstrual cycle.

During this 90-minute interactive workshop, families will explore:

• Female anatomy

• Hormones through the “Story of the Kingdom” illustration

• Ovulation and cycle timing

• Period products and what to expect

• Normal cycle variations

• How to build a supportive “Culture of Care” at home

The workshop equips both girls and parents with clear science, shared language, and practical tools to talk about puberty with truth, dignity, and calm— a positive, faith-informed way.

✨ This is not “the talk” — it’s the foundation for many good conversations to come.

Girls will leave with:

• A custom period-product kit

• A workbook and discussion guide for continued learning

Parents will receive:

• Guides for talking with your daughter’s doctor

• Resources to support ongoing conversations

• Additional tools for navigating puberty with confidence

For girls aged 9-11 (slightly younger or older at parents' discretion)

Only one ticket per a family is needed

Cost:

💲 $25 per family (includes 1 workbook + supplies)

➕ Optional: +$5 per additional girl for her own workbook
