The Whole-Brain Child Workshop

Are you a parent or caregiver looking for simple, helpful ways to support the children in your life? Join us for a fun, supportive workshop that will give you the tools to help nurture your child’s developing mind. 

Presented by the YMCA of Northern Alberta


The Whole-Brain Child workshop is designed for families with children from birth to teenage years and explores how the brain grows and how that affects a child’s feelings, behaviour and development. In this one-day session, you’ll learn easy, practical strategies to help you navigate everyday challenges such as big emotions or tough transitions and help your child become more resilient, emotionally strong, and capable. Lunch will be provided.
