Young children are capable of so much, we just have to let them show us all that they can do.

Children love to be helpful, to feel like they are participating in real work that means something to the people they love most, their parents and siblings. And giving them opportunities to participate in the routines of their home-life, from cooking to cleaning to dressing themselves in the morning and packing their own lunches, makes them feel big and important and proud of themselves, empowered to take on new challenges.

In this workshop you will learn why it is so important for children to do things for themselves - from a very young age and how to get started.

• You will learn the power of independence for young children and the confidence and sense of control and stability it can bring to their experiences at home 

• You will learn how to set up daily systems, tools, and expectations in your house that will create a culture of shared communal responsibility in your family that will encourage your child to be independent in things like getting dressed and brushing teeth, preparing food of himself and others, and participating in other family/house-hold tasks

Workshop attendance is $35 per person and includes:

• Hour-long live session (which includes Q & A)

• Follow-up summary email with links to pertinent materials and guides
