Discipline and Young Children by Best Selling Author Dr. Gordon Neufeld
Children the Heart of The Matter Presents:
Discipline and Young Children by Best Selling Author Dr. Gordon Neufeld.
The prevailing practice is to take what works with older children and to apply them to the younger set. Dr. Neufeld reveals the pitfalls of this strategy, especially regarding such common methods as warnings, consequences and time-outs. According to Neufeld, our methods must be informed by how young brains work and by what is required for healthy development to occur. Dr. Neufeld will provide alternative strategies that are both effective and developmentally safe with young children.

Everyone had a wonderful evening of food, networking and pampering! Some of the pampering included mini manicures, hennas, threading, bra fittings, hand treatments, back scans and naturopathic consultations. And everyone went home with two goodie bags filled with great items!
