Winning at Parenting…without beating your kids may sound like a severe title, but haven’t we all felt that way before!! This video presentation by Barbara Coloroso is the winter workshop series being presented at Circle of ParentsÒ. This will be presented as a five part series with the following titles and dates:
Ø March 15 “Bedtime” & “Fighting”
Ø April 12 “Jail”, “Rebellion”, & “Sex Education”
Pre-registration is not required, but appreciated so that we can better plan the meal and the amount of Children’s Time Volunteers needed. The workshops will be held on normal meeting nights at the United Methodist Church (803 Roy St) in Ortonville, located West of the hospital. A free meal is served from 5:30- 6 pm and the workshop is held from 6-7 pm. Free childcare called “Children’s Time” is provided during the workshop. The Children’s Time program is an enjoyable time for kids and volunteers. The program involves making crafts, reading books, and playing games. There is no fee for attending.
