The Curriculum
- Because 80% to 90% of brain development occurs before the age of three years, the curriculum used in the workshop - The Early Years - focuses on newborns to three year olds. Positive Parenting workshops provide parents with a clear understanding of their child's unfolding development, how to nurture and support their child's brain development and growth, how to handle challenging behaviors and cultivate positive self-esteem.
- Through small group discussions and activities parents are given an opportunity to share ideas, support each other and gain knowledge and confidence. Parents become their own problem solvers. Group dynamics allow participants to gain insight and awareness into the complex and exciting task of raising a child.
