CHILDHOOD: The gift of a happy childhood lasts a lifetime. Many people worry that our kids are growing up faster and faster, with less carefree happiness, more tantrums, and more commercial influences. In this workshop we'll come together to learn: Why childhood is so important and what function it serves to overall development. We'll also take a look at what vital aspects are missing for today's kids and most importantly, what you can do about it! We'll explore questions about healthy use of media, the magic of play, conscious respectful discipline and more. This is a fun and empowering workshop for parents, teachers, grandparents and anyone who loves a child. This workshop is offered at a sliding scale donation. No one is turned away for lack of funds. Saturday October 15th 2-4.
