Workshops for ParentsParenting Course Kensington
Empowered Parenting offers clear, concise insights into the nature of your child and what you can do to support them emotionally, socially and academically. You will gain an understanding of child development, helping you to realize the reasons behind your child’s behaviour, and how to use this knowledge, along with strategies, to get the very best from them. Along with this, we will look at some of the reasons behind sibling rivalry and how to encourage harmonious sibling relationships. We will explore the building blocks that support maths, literacy and creativity, and will look at games and activities to support your child in that journey.
The parenting course has six sections:
The secrets of child development: core principles of the developing child and what you can do practically to support them. We look at the developmental stages from birth to 3, 3-6 and 6-12.
Behaviour: this section deals with the importance of the language we use with our children and how tweaking the way we speak can help foster positive behaviour.
Sibling Rivalry: how to avoid sibling conflict and resentment.
Language development and the basics of literacy: the foundations that underpin spoken language, reading and writing. We look at the acquisition of language from birth and how early games and experiences help develop language and prepare children for reading and writing.
Number development and the basics of maths: creating a love of, and ease with, numbers (yes really!)
Creativity: setting free your child’s inner artist.
Age: birth – 5
