Just as kids' bodies need specific nutrients for good health, they also need a balanced diet of physical activity to help them reach their potential. The workshop will introduce the Kinetic Scale: a visual map of the active learning needs of infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and primary graders. Parents, teachers and caregivers will find a wealth of information, actionable tips, and games they can use to support children's healthy development.
Authors Gill Connell and Cheryl McCarthy will give a free workshop and promote their new book titled "A Moving Child is a Learning Child: How the Body Teaches the Brain to Think."For more information visit their website: http://movingsmart.co.nz/
This workshop is for adults only, no childcare will be available.
