About the Program:

The goal of the program is to have fun, to prepare a product to take home, to learn about inexpensive and easy ways of making educational play materials, to broaden knowledge about parenting, and to influence change that will improve parenting abilities. Parents have the opportunity to freely discuss parenting challenges, to learn skills and to share ideas that support their positive efforts in meeting these challenges.

Format:

Each week, a topic is introduced in a very informal way as participants make or create something that they can take home. They can use the item with their child, or keep it as a reminder of a goal that they have for their parenting. For example, parents can make and keep a stress ball that's handy when feeling frustrated or overwhelmed, or create and use a puppet with their child to help the child work through emotions, etc...
