We have all been taught that children learn through play and we use it as our philosophy when we are caring for children. But what really is play? What does it look like? What is our role as educators in children’s play? In this workshop, we are going to explore the humongous, beautiful topic of PLAY! Let’s explore the impact on children’s development, routines in our programs that enhance or take away from play, provocations, loose parts and much more! Presenter: Alisha Inch Suitable for all early learning and child care professionals. There will be 30 min lunch break. Please bring bagged lunch.

Understanding children’s behaviour through the lens of temperament. Have you ever wondered why you or others in your life react or behave in a certain way? This workshop will introduce the concept of “temperament” and will explore nine temperament traits and how this understanding will affect every interaction and relationship, we have in life. You will learn to recognize and interpret temperament traits in yourself and others, and understand how this may impact your relationships with family, colleagues, clients, friends, and the children you work with. At the end of this session, you will become more aware of your own behaviour and have a glimpse into the behaviour of those around you through the temperament lens. You will be able to apply this knowledge around temperament in your personal and professional life. Presenters: Darcy Morgan and Debra Phillipson
