January: Understanding Childhood Stress
Childhood is full of changing developmental needs, evolving understanding of the world around us and changing expectations from peers, parents and caregivers. When kids get stressed, it’s vital that trusted adults come alongside and help them learn how to become aware of the feelings associated with stressful situations and then model using healthy strategies to manage and cope with these feelings. Join us to talk about how you can understand and influence your child’s response to stress.
Encompass Parent Talks are informal sessions at local Snoqualmie Valley libraries where caregivers can drop in to chat about parenting and raising young children. Each month, the facilitator will have tips and information on a relevant topic. Stop by to learn, share, and get to know fellow parents who are going through the same things as you and your family.
Children are welcome and no preregistration is required—join us for one or all sessions and let’s talk! Parent Talks happen monthly at the Issaquah, Sammamish, Fall City, Snoqualmie, North Bend, Carnation, and Duvall libraries.
