The Effective Parenting Workshop for parents of 1 - 5 year olds; Bonnie Harris

The EPW contains all you need to know about your 1-5 year old. You will learn about your child's developmental stages and unique, individual temperament characteristics, what to expect from your child's behavior and how best to set limits positively and communicate empathically with both preverbal and verbal children. Now is the time to encourage responsibility and motivate cooperation. You will gain the skills of problem-solving and conflict resolution, the alternatives to reward and punishment, to begin developing your child's accountability—and so much more. All the skills used are designed to support self-esteem, self-confidence, and capability. Starting now will save you agony and exhaustion later on.

Newspaper Article - Teamwork!

I’ve never been one for athletics. Don’t get me wrong—I love hiking, kayaking, biking or anything that gets me outside for fresh air and exercise. But basketball, softball, soccer? Not me. But—there’s nothing I love more than being on a team.
