Thursday, May 17, 2018. 6:30pm-8:00pm. $20. Bring the act of "mindfulness" to your early childhood classrooms. Mindful awareness exercises help children develop focusing skills while learning to regulate their emotions and respond to any situation calmly, with kindness and compassion. Participants will understand what mindfulness is and recognize reasons for promoting mindfulness in the classroom. Participants will learn at least two new ways to promote mindfulness in their classrooms using individual, small group and large group activities. Children's movement and music activities that support mindfulness will be introduced along with other techniques. The instructor is Kristi Kirinch. Please register at www.occrra.org.
