Synopsis
Positive, supportive experiences with parents and other adults are important for children’s brain development. These foundational interactions build brain architecture and help ensure that children will have strong and resilient brains. It’s ideal to build brains from birth, but it’s never too late to start. Come learn how to promote and practice essential life skills!
Over 500 educators and other professionals working in Singapore have been trained about executive function skills through a program called Mind in the Making by Ellen Galinsky. Preschool teachers, museum and library educators, and Singapore Zoo educators are currently promoting and practicing the 7 essential life skills. The audience will learn about the 7 skills and come away aligned with others working with children and families locally.
