The Crucial Nature of Children's Free Play

with Catherine Pilko

Vital Role of Play.JPG

Child-initiated creative play is the wellspring of a healthy childhood and lays the foundation for the building of each child's imagination and creative thinking. Young children have an amazing capacity to learn implicitly about themselves and the world in which they live through imitation and play.

In this session we will consider;

- what constitutes healthy play and how we can best create an environment that supports it.

- how we can reduce the effects of the many aspects of modern life that impact healthy play.

Thursday 24th October at 7.30pm via Zoom

The Spirit of Christmas

with Ebba Bodame

Spirit of Christmas.JPG

This workshop will explore with parents the various images of Christmas, such as the nativity, Santa Claus, Christmas Eve, their deeper meaning and how this enables us to bring our children into the heart of Christmas.

Ebba will lovingly explore;

  • Preparing your children for Christmas through Advent time
  • How to include the gift of summer into our Christmas celebrations
  • Ideas for activities, stories and gift-making, which may free parents and children from the commercial
    pressure of this season (which gifts fulfil at this time of giving).
  • Rituals for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day appropriate for young children.

Participants will be shown how to create a simple Christmas angel, inspired to share with their family the simple joys of this special time of year.

This is an opportunity for you to purchase a pre-recorded session of Ebba’s rich and wonderful Christmas talk
