    What if the right kind of cartoon could help a neurodivergent child feel understood, capable, and confident in the world?

    In this powerful and practical workshop, writer/producer Sharon Tosten of Royal Toast Films shares how she creates cartoons and books specifically designed to support neurodivergent children—helping them build real-world skills while embracing what makes them unique.
    This session is designed for parents, creatives, educators, and anyone interested in how media can be used to create meaningful, positive change.

    ## Who This Is For

    • Parents of neurodivergent children looking for tools that build skills and self-confidence
    • Creatives who want to make media that supports and uplifts children
    • Educators and advocates exploring therapeutic and developmental media
    • Anyone curious about how storytelling can make a real difference in people’s lives

    ## What You’ll Learn

    • How cartoons and books can help neurodivergent children better understand themselves and the world
    • The specific elements that make characters and stories resonate with neurodivergent audiences
    • What to look for and avoid in children’s media to prevent confusion, overwhelm, or emotional triggers
    • How to help children apply what they learn after the cartoon ends
    • Ways parents and creators can reach and support neurodivergent audiences nationwide

    ## Inside Royal Toast Films

    Sharon will walk through her creative process, including:

    • How she designs characters and environments that feel safe, engaging, honest, and empowering
    • The storytelling tools she uses to teach practical skills across a wide variety of media
    • How her work helps children build confidence—even in challenging or competitive environments
    • Why the right media is key to unlocking the world for neurodivergent children. (Tip: It can be there when parent’s, teachers, and friends aren’t.)

    ## Why This Matters

    Most media entertains. Some media teaches.

    This workshop shows you how that’s done.

    ## Event Format

    • Live online workshop
    • Presentation + real examples

    ## A Call to Action

    If you care about a neurodivergent child’s growth, confidence, and happiness—or want to create media that truly helps people—this session will give you ideas and tools you can use right away.
