Description

Discover the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience and their impact on children’s behaviour at our upcoming event. Join us for an insightful session exploring why kids act the way they do, and why self-regulation can be such a challenge. You’ll gain a clear understanding of how self-regulation skills develop, learn to reframe tricky behaviours, and identify underlying skill deficits. The workshop will also provide practical strategies for supporting children to build crucial self-regulation abilities. Whether you’re a parent, educator, or health professional, this event offers essential knowledge and tools to foster positive social and emotional growth in children. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to deepen your understanding and make a real difference in young lives. Register now for an engaging and informative day!
