TROUBLESHOOTING TODDLERHOOD
A GUIDED DISCUSSION SERIES with MEREDITH GARY FOR PARENTS OF CHILDREN 20-36 MONTHS [Virtual]
Being the parent of a newborn is exhausting, but for many parents it’s during the toddler years that they begin to feel most overwhelmed. There’s great joy in being able to have conversations with your child, do more things together and see their personality evolve. There’s also a lot of frustration as you encounter battles of will, difficult behavior, tantrums and more.
Join Meredith and fellow HRP Mamas Parents for interactive discussions of some of the most common challenges of the toddler years.
This guided discussion series is for parents of children 20-36 months.

Session 4 - Learning Through Play
What do toddlers learn when they play? How does play form a foundation for academic learning in school? How much should parents be involved in children's play? How can parents support independent play?
