Building Resilience in Early
Childhood: It's Not a Choice Between Happiness, Play and Success!
with Ken Ginsburg, MD
November 17, 2011, Winnetka Community House, 620 Lincoln
Ave., Winnetka
So often people think they have to choose between happiness today and a
child well prepared for future academic challenges. In fact, if we pressure
our kids too much today and take away the joys of childhood, they will be
less prepared for a productive future. This talk will address the importance
of play and a variety of resilience strategies that will prepare children to
thrive far into the future.
Sponsored by FAN, The
Alliance for Early Childhood , Make-a-Messterpiece, and the
Winnetka
Community House.
