Dream Catcher

There is a Native American legend that tells how the Native Americans put a dream catcher (a round hoop with woven thread, like a web that leaves an opening in the center) over their babies' beds to protect the babies from their bad dreams. The web catches the bad dreams before they can reach the baby, and the good dreams make their way through the hole in the center. After the facilitator tells the legend, he/she should hand the dream catcher to a volunteer who will share what bad dreams he/she wants kept away, and what good dreams he/she hopes will reach him/her. Then the dream catcher is passed to another group member.
