Simplicity Parenting©: Using the Extraordinary Power of Less to Raise Calmer, Happier, and More Secure Kids
Join the slow
parenting movement and learn how to simplify your life. Based on the teachings of internationally-acclaimed
author Kim John Payne, Simplicity Parenting© offers a clear and effective pathway to
simplifying four realms at home:
1. Environment: Organize
and remove all the “stuff” clogging your home
2. Rhythm:
Increase predictability in your family’s day, week and year
3. Scheduling: Bring
balance to your child’s life, by allowing more moments of “being” amid all the
"doing"
4. Filtering Out: Reduce the influence of adult concerns, media and consumerism on your children
Join Allison Abramson, Simplicity Parenting Group Leader for a seven week course to fully explore each of these realms. Throughout the course, you will be given the tools you need to make small, do-able changes at home that will deepen family connections and create more time for the simple joys of childhood.
