I have done individual sessions with children and we "play" with stuffed
animals who become the representatives. The child chooses which animal is them
and chooses representatives as we bring them in and through play their
constellation unfolds. I have a big leather chair in my office and in one
constellation, after a few movements, the child put the animals representing
his parents in the chair and then he laid with his back resting on the parents.
He just rested there for some time and was so peaceful. It was quite beautiful.
There is a lot of work happening with children using figurines, and in Mexico
there are schools where they regularly use constellations with the children.
If you want more information on working with stuffed animals, drop me a line
privately.

Hi Auberon,
I don't work with young children, however, I do regular FC groups during our
school year with adolescents, the youngest being 12. I would be happy to email
or Skype with you.
Best,
Bill Mannle

I am a recent member of constellation talk and so I am not sure what has been
covered in the recent past and whether the issue I am interested in has been
considered before. There is a question I would like to raise. Is it feasible
to do constellation work with children?? I am considering working with
children whose parents have died and I am wondering whether emotional field
work of the constellation type is do-able with people who are very young. I
would be very interested to hear what other people's opinions are on this and
whether anyone has worked with children in this way.
