We know that children use their behaviour as language, so it essential that we understand that children who are exhibiting challenging behaviours are doing so because they are having a challenging time.  This Online Workshop will look at the neuroscience of children’s behaviour and offer opportunities for participants to “wonder” about a child’s behaviour.  It will also offer practical strategies for managing children’s challenging behaviour and ways to build resilience.  The workshop drawers upon the work of Dan Siegel and John Gottman.

Learning Outcomes:

• Increased knowledge of the developing brain;
• Increased ability to help children manage their emotions, and
• Increased understanding of relationship-building strategies.

REGISTER NOW! PLACES ARE STRICTLY LIMITED TO ENSURE THAT YOU EXPERIENCE A HIGH LEVEL OF ENGAGEMENT AND INTERACTIVITY.
