How do you know what is the right toy and the right activity to do at the right stage of your child’s development to ensure they have a positive impact on learning?

This workshop will be geared for parents with children from birth to 2 years old and will include:

- how to maximise brain connections
- practical ideas and tips to help you develop your child’s intelligence in a balanced, all-rounded way

Understanding the importance of play and “scaffolding” learning for success will be the key messages throughout the session. Practical ideas will help you link educational toys with meaningful learning activities so you can get it right from the start!
