Course Description
Learn key strategies for raising happy, resilient children through applying researched neuroscience of how a child’s brain is wired and how it matures. In this course, Educators learn about the growing parts of a child’s brain, which makes decisions and balances emotions. Children from infancy are driven by the emotions of their developing right brain. These emotions tend to rule over the logic of the left brain. No wonder kids throw tantrums, fight, or sulk in silence. By applying the research and everyday strategies, you can turn any outburst, argument, or fear into a chance to integrate a child’s brain and foster vital growth. Educators learn ways to feel more connected to the children, build healthy attachment and bonds with children and feel more satisfied in their role as a educator.
