A Chance To Grow Presents: Why Do They Do That?
About this Event

Please join us for this 2 hour virtual develop approved class!

Chewed sleeves and shirt collars? Meltdowns at every transition? Rough play all the time? Let's discover together how to understand common child behaviors from the inside out! Explore the “why” behind actions that tend to be labeled as “misbehaviors” in your childcare or classroom setting. Understanding behavior from the inside out will allow you to use a developmental lens to clearly identify what the child is trying to tell you through their actions. Leave with tips, tricks, and hands-on experiences to help ease the frequency or intensity of these common behaviors.
