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.

If you have taken our WGM Facilitator Training, you are invited to a Wiggle, Giggle and Munch (WGM) Peer Group Meeting, where you will have the opportunity to meet other WGM Leaders in our first-ever online meeting!

The topic of this session will be Food! Do you think is there something such as “picky eaters” or this could be related to sensory integration and child development?

Come to discuss with other leaders’ ideas and challenges about food and get a fun recipe for your program. Take a sneak peek of our Wiggle, Giggle and Munch’s Food workshop.

Our first Networking Peer group session will be on June 18 at noon (until 1:30) via Zoom.

The best part? It’s free for all WGM leaders, but registration is required. Please use the following link to register.

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.
