The Life of Infants & Toddlers Part 2: Rituals and care moments with infants and toddlers (online)

Date: Wednesday 12th June 2024   Time: 4.00pm - 5.30pm

Routines and transitions are an intrinsic part of the day in early childhood settings. They provide predictability and wellbeing for our infants, toddlers, and educators. However, when we talk of rituals, we are referring to something more. We are talking of elevating routines and care moments into something magical that involves intention and beauty.  During this workshop we will discuss how to turn routines into personalised care moments and rituals.
