Taking programs outdoors: Sensory Play

We all know about the 5 senses, but did you know that there are more than 5 senses?

No? Then attend this session to find out more about our internal senses, and why outdoor play helps develop these during the critical early years of child development.

Yes? Then attend this session to learn more about how you can actively promote sensory experiences during outdoor programming, and pass this knowledge on to the families you work with.

“Integrating Emotional Well-Being and Self-Regulation Tools into Our WGM Programs”.

Understanding feelings can be a complex task for adults, and even more so for children. Imagine the incredible impact we can make by guiding them through this journey with simple activities and engaging books. We invite you to join us in exploring how these tools can empower children to develop emotional awareness, enhance communication skills, self-regulation, foster empathy, and build strong social connections.  This event is free, but registration is required.
