Reading with your children can do much more than support their academic growth! During this supportive facilitated discussion caregivers will discuss strategies they can use before, during, and after reading to build social-emotional learning with the children in their care. Caregivers will also collaborate to identify techniques they can use to increase attachment with their child through reading and story time. Whether it is picture books, a chapter book or a series, reading with the children in your home can lead to deeper attachment and improved social-emotional skills!

Emotion Coaching® is a research-based method from the Gottman Institute that gives caregivers a way to help children learn about emotions. Research shows that when caregivers value and guide emotions using this important method, children do better in many ways. These children tend to: • Form stronger friendships with peers • Have higher self esteem • Regulate their moods more easily • Be more successful in their problem-solving skills • Bounce back from emotional events more quickly • Get sick less often
