Thinkersinq

Healthy emotional regulation in children and adults, will in turn lead them to feel more confident, capable and in control. They have stronger relationships, are more able to pay attention, learn new things and can cope better with the normal stresses and disappointments of daily life.

Join us to listen to panellists Rebecca Cort (Arches Foundation), Rod Soper (ThinkersInq) and Lynda Kramer (Mayfield Nature Kindergarten) to discuss forms of emotional regulation, the window of tolerance and practical strategies they have implemented.

In Focus webinars Be You acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land on which we work. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and extend our respect to all Elders and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples across Australia.

Supporting early childhood development can take many forms. For caregivers and providers who work directly with young children, one area of opportunity lies in supporting the development of executive function skills, which are the skills that help us plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks successfully. Children aren’t born with these skills — they are born with the potential to develop them.

Check out this series of handouts designed to help children (6 months to adolescent) build these important skills. https://bit.ly/2tA37ns
