It is time again for the Parent-Child Mother Goose Gathering.
Tickets are on sale now via Trybooking, follow the link below to book.
This year we will be gathering online on Friday 2 December from 1.45pm - 4.45pm AEDT.
Our guest speaker this year is one I'm really looking forward to hearing.
Bharti Gautam from FKA will be joining us. FKA specialises in providing skills and resources to educators on the subject of cultural inclusion in program delivery. It's sure to be a great conversation.
Of course there will also be the usual opportunities to share rhymes, stories and songs and hear about what other P-CMG groups are up to.
The cost of attending our Gathering is $50 per participant. Book here https://www.trybooking.com/CEEUZ
Zoom links will be provided via email the week before the event. Parts of the event will be recorded.
Note that you need to have completed Level One Facilitator Training to attend.

We're offering a free online peer support session for qualified Parent-Child Mother Goose facilitators this coming Monday, 12 September, from 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm Melbourne time.
This is a great opportunity to share concerns, ask questions, get tips on resources and form connections with other people using P-CMG principles and practices in their work, regardless of whether you are currently facilitating a Parent-Child Mother Goose group or using those principles and practices in other ways.
To register your interest, please contact Liduina Davin ([email protected]). Attendees will receive a Zoom link closer to the date.
Maroondah City Council has just advertised positions of Kindergarten Outreach Officer and Bilingual Childrens Services Officer. Both positions have a focus on helping members of Myanmar/Burmese communities transition to kindergarten and school. Neither advertisement explicitly mentions the Parent-Child Mother Goose program, but it does sound to us like a background in P-CMG might be useful in either of these positions if you happen to meet the other employment criteria.

If you've got Spotify Premium, did you know you could create your own playlist of Parent-Child Mother Goose favourite songs or rhymes and take them with you to play anywhere (say, in the car)? Turns out it's actually pretty simple.
You can download any of the songs or rhymes on our website to your computer by clicking the download links on our songs and rhymes pages.
To get them from your computer into a Spotify playlist, see the link below. (Note that you will need to install the Spotify app onto your computer. You can't do this simply from the Spotify website.)

What is Parent-Child Mother Goose?
Parent-Child Mother Goose is an evidence-based program that strengthens attachment and interaction between parents or carers and their young children by introducing them to the pleasure and power of using rhymes, songs and stories together.
Through the program, parents gain skills and confidence that help them create positive family patterns during their children's crucial early years. At the same time, children benefit from enjoyable, healthy early experiences with language and communication.
Parent-Child Mother Goose is particularly suitable for parents and carers who need extra support because of their own personal or social circumstances, or because their children have special needs or are otherwise at risk.
