Lunch & Learn: Wiggling & Giggling Outside @ Zoom
Apr 11 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm

Outdoor play can happen in any season, but we need to be prepared and know how to best plan these sessions. During this lunch and learn, we will talk about the importance of outdoor play, how to communicate these benefits, as well as how to model best practices.  We will offer practical tips and ideas for activities outside. This workshop will be helpful for any service provider, but is especially important for those hoping to facilitate Wiggle, Giggle & Munch Programs.

Please register here.

Munch & Mingle: Creating Positive Sensory Experiences (Inclusive Programming) @ IRCOM
Apr 17 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm

All people experience the world differently from one another. One way to make our programming more accessible to all potential participants is to consider how to accommodate a broad range of needs in terms of sensory experiences.

While sensory-related accommodations can be critical for many children and caregivers who are “neurodiverse”, everyone can benefit from positive sensory experiences. In this special in-person lunch and learn, we will talk about the different areas that accommodations may be important and offer practical tips that you may wish to incorporate into your programs. We will also talk about communicating your inclusive, affirming intentions to potential clients.

Please come with your lunch, but be prepared to “Munch and Mingle” with other service providers during the session.  No registration is required.

Mindful Munchkins @ Zoom
Apr 25 @ 9:30 am – 11:30 am

Mindful Munchkins is a program geared toward identifying emotions and how to manage them. So often we forget that our little ones don’t have the language to express how they’re feeling, so they use actions instead. This program teaches children about various emotions, self-regulation, problem solving skills, positive self-esteem and empathy. All of this takes place while developing strong and positive parent-child relationships!

This workshop will share mental health resources to use in your programs with families with young children.

NOTE:  Registration for this workshop closes on April 10.
