September 25: RELAX - Alternatives to Anger for Parents and Caregivers

Everyone gets angry, including young children. RELAX for parents and caregivers explores the anger and strong emotions experienced by infants, toddlers and preschoolers. This workshop will help participants learn about the developmental stages in children’s self-control and how parents and caregivers can assist children at each stage, learn about cortisol and our body’s reaction to stress, and explore activities that can help with self-control.

Extension Extras for Professionals is a collection of free online workshops that provide professional development, guidance, and support for early childhood professionals and caregivers. Trainings are eligible for MIRegistry hours.

Certificates for participation are provided upon completion of the class.

Participants have the option to attend and actively participate via computer, or an app on a tablet or smartphone. Attendees can also listen to the presentation via phone (by calling in). Those who choose to call in must contact the instructor for directions on how to be eligible for a certificate.

If multiple people in the same location want to participate in the webinar and need certificates, they have to join the webinar separately or contact the instructor for special instructions to each receive a certificate.
