SUMMARY:Wilton's Big Block Party Weekend
DESCRIPTION:In an effort to strengthen neighborhood connections and create opportunity for face-to-face conversation\, Wilton Youth Council’s Free Play Task Force is encouraging participation in Wilton’s Big Block Party Weekend. The theme is “Building community one block at a time.” The next town-wide weekend is September 15-16\, with each road or neighborhood choosing its own day and time. There are no hard and fast rules for the events\, but people are encouraged to think simple and keep it “old-fashioned.” \nWe have a two-pronged goal of creating opportunities for Wilton residents to connect in person instead of on social media\, as well as helping children to make friends in their neighborhood in order to foster more neighborhood free play. \nTop Reasons to have a Block Party \n1. Meet and get to know your neighbors\n2. Increase a sense of belonging in the community\n3. Get outside\, make friends and have fun–no excuses are needed to celebrate\n4. Find neighborhood playmates for your children\n5. Opportunity for face-to-face connection and conversation\n6. Meet some of the long standing neighbors and learn about your community history\n7. Decrease stress of snow days\, storms and emergency situations\n8. Create a neighborhood contact list

SUMMARY:College Frenzy:  How to Manage and Minimize the Stress
DESCRIPTION:Presentation and discussion for students and parents led by Susan Bauerfeld\, PhD\, Clinical Psychologist\, Parent Coach and Victoria Hirsch\, College Consultant \nThe College Process has come to be viewed as “THE BIG EVENT” in the lives of students and their families. The pressure associated with THE BIG EVENT often creates a lot of negative fallout\, such as ruptured relationships and high levels of stress and anxiety. In this presentation\, parent coach and clinical psychologist Susan Bauerfeld\, PhD and college consultant Victoria Hirsch will offer tips\, strategies and suggestions for viewing the college process as a natural next step rather than THE BIG EVENT and for managing the process in ways that foster resilience and relationships rather than discord and despair. \nThis presentation is aimed at students and parents of students who are preparing for and/or actively applying to college. If you (or your child) are not yet in high school we suggest you relax and think about other things this year. That being said\, all students\, parents and other interested parties are welcome to attend. \nAdmission is free; online registration is recommended. Please email Genevieve Eason with questions. \nSponsored by:  Wilton Public Schools\, Wilton High School Counseling\, Wilton Youth Council\, and Wilton Youth Services

SUMMARY:Parenting Talk:  Children Do Well When They Can–Identifying & Solving Problems That Cause Challenging Behaviors
DESCRIPTION:Parent presentation by Ross W. Greene\, Ph.D.\, author of The Explosive Child; Lost at School; and Raising Human Beings \nChildren do well when they can; when they can’t\, it is because of lagging skills and unsolved problems. All children have times when they struggle to handle life’s expectations. Whether a child responds by whining\, sulking\, or crying\, or in ways that are more concerning–hitting\, swearing\, or biting–the goal of parents and caregivers is to identify and solve the underlying problems that cause the behavior. \nJoin organizers to learn from child psychologist Ross W. Greene\, Ph.D.\, how to understand children’s challenging episodes\, identify unsolved problems and begin to solve problems. Dr. Greene is the originator of the innovative\, empirically-supported approach to children’s behavioral challenges known as Collaborative & Proactive Solutions. \nIn the 2018-2019 school year\, the Wilton Public Schools will be learning more about Dr. Greene’s model. The district has worked with Dr. Greene to create a plan to help teachers\, faculty\, administration\, staff\, and parents learn how to help students with effective self-regulation and problem-solving strategies. This will begin with keynote addresses for elementary\, middle and high school faculty on Oct. 8\, which is a professional development day for district staff. In addition to working with faculty\, Dr. Greene will also present to parents and other concerned adults to share this model with our community. \nAdmission is free; online registration is recommended. Please email Genevieve Eason with questions. \nSponsored by:  Wilton Public Schools\, SPED*NET Wilton\, Wilton Youth Council\, and Wilton Youth Services

SUMMARY:FILM SCREENING:  Beyond Measure: What Counts Can’t Be Counted
DESCRIPTION:Wilton Public Schools\, Wilton Youth Council and Wilton Youth Services invite Wilton residents to a special three-part series to explore the purpose of education\, the importance of childhood and our community’s opportunity to chart the best course for our children. \nThe series began in November with a screening of Race to Nowhere: The Dark Side of America’s Achievement Culture. It continues on Monday\, Feb. 4 with a screening of the follow-up movie\, Beyond Measure. We conclude with a Community Conversation on Monday\, Feb. 25. \nEvery day we hear stories about America’s troubled education system\, and that in order to fix what’s broken\, we need to narrow curricula\, standardize classrooms\, and find new ways to measure students and teachers. But what if these “fixes” are making our schools worse? Beyond Measure offers a positive picture of what’s possible in American education when communities decide they are ready for change. \nJoin us for 80-minute film followed by a brief panel discussion. This is a free event\, open to adults and students from middle school up. \nThe documentary film Beyond Measure visits public schools across the country that put research and innovative models into practice. These groundbreaking communities are transforming what and how they teach\, and creating more equitable\, empowering and student-centered cultures from the ground up. \nFrom the makers of Race to Nowhere\, Beyond Measure and the companion book of the same name offer a positive picture of what’s possible in American education when communities decide they are ready for change. \nThere are two opportunities to participate–a morning screening and an evening screening! Both screenings will be held at Middlebrook School Auditorium. Register here: \n10 a.m. Screening \n7 p.m. Screening \nSponsored by Wilton Public Schools\, Wilton Youth Council\, and Wilton Youth Services. \n

SUMMARY:The Pressure to be Perfect and Its Unintended Consequences
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Alicia Farrell\, Ph.D. \nWe are raising our children in complicated times where performance is valued over character. In such a competitive world\, parents\, educators and leaders are unwittingly passing on to their children pressure to be perfect. In turn\, our children are feeling inadequate\, anxious\, overwhelmed\, stressed\, scared and tired. This talk is designed to address how we arrived at this place and what we can do about it. Here are some questions that will be answered: \n\nWhat does it mean to be perfect and what are the consequences of trying?\nHow do we balance embracing our children’s imperfections with the importance of working hard and doing your best?\nWhat are the benefits of failure and why is it critically important to our children’s development?\nWhat are healthy\, age-appropriate expectations and how do we communicate them without shame and fear?\nHow do boys and girls experience and respond to the pressure to achieve differently?\nWhat is the relationship between the pressure to be perfect and the nationwide increase of anxiety disorders\, addiction\, and suicide in children and adolescence?\n\nIt is time for change. Knowledge is key. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn! \nThis program is appropriate for parents with children of all ages. \n10-11:30 a.m. at Wilton Library (137 Old Ridgefield Road\, Wilton):  The presentation is free to attend\, but registration is recommended either online or by calling 203.762.6334. \n7-8:30 p.m. at Weston Library (56 Norfield Road\, Weston):  The presentation is free to attend\, but online registration is recommended. \nSponsored by:  Wilton Library\, Wilton Youth Council\, Wilton Youth Services\, Weston Youth Services\, and Weston Library
