Compassionate Counselling for Women of Vancouver, BC & the Lower Mainland

Songs with a Purpose

Basic Overview:

‘Songs with a Purpose’ sessions are for parents and all adults who work with children. Many music programs teach about numbers and ABCs, but this program goes beyond that. You will learn fun songs that can help  teach children…

  • the importance and wonder of nature
  • how to control your body (“self regulation”)
  • how to use social skills

 

Learn music that adds fun to daily activities like:

  • sitting still
  • cooperating with putting on shoes
  • brushing teeth
  • cleaning up

 

Workshop Take-Aways:

  • Participants will leave with a CD and a booklet of a selection of the songs in the workshop

 

Teachers:

Invite me to your school for an in-service workshop about using the nature in your school area as a learning opportunity for your students.

Parents:

Consider hosting this event, and invite your friends. I will come to your home!

 

Cost:

Until end of 2013, if you host the group, then this workshop is $25 per person. If I book a venue for this event, then the cost may vary depending on the rental of the space.
