SUMMARY:Introduction to Playwork with Morgan Leichter-Saxby of Pop-Up Adventure Play
DESCRIPTION:Two Professional Development Workshops Offered\nAll professionals and policy makers who work with or on behalf of children are invited.\n\n\n9-11 a.m. at Miller Driscoll Elementary School\n\n\n12:30-2:30 p.m. at Cider Mill School\n\n\nTo RSVP\, email Colleen Fawcett of Wilton Youth Services by April 11.\n\n\nPlay is essential to children’s development and well-being–but providing time\, space and materials can be a struggle! In this session\, we’ll examine Playwork\, a UK-based professional approach to supporting children’s play. We will explore key vocabulary and theories on the processes of play (including common points of friction) and look at material and social environments which can encourage collaborative\, inclusive and satisfying experiences for all. We’ll reflect upon our own responses to children’s needs and interests\, including specific ways to know when to step back and ways to step in. Through leading research and stories of frontline practice\, we’ll also look at ways to think about our sites in both the short and long-term\, and work together to build stronger and more cohesive staff teams.\n\n \n\n\nSponsored by Wilton Youth Services and Wilton Youth Council‘s Free Play Matters Task Force.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...

SUMMARY:The Pressure to be Perfect and Its Unintended Consequences
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Alicia Farrell\, Ph.D.\n\n\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\n\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!\n\n\nThis program is appropriate for parents with children of all ages.\n\n\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.\n\n \n\n\n7-8:30 p.m. at Weston Library (56 Norfield Road\, Weston):  The presentation is free to attend\, but online registration is recommended.\n\n\nSponsored by:  Wilton Library\, Wilton Youth Council\, Wilton Youth Services\, Weston Youth Services\, and Weston Library.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...
