Third Annual CFK Parenting Conference - October 2007
On Saturday, October 20, 2007, Communities for Kids held its Third Annual Parenting Conference at the beautiful Sonora Community Centre in Osoyoos, BC. Forty-five participants enjoyed the opportunity to explore ideas on how to encourage and enhance the development of children from birth to age 6.
The day-long conference gave participants the choice of three workshops from important topics such as Understanding Child Behaviour, Kids Have Stress Too, Family Fun, Healthy Opportunities for Preschoolers, Cultural Values Today, Long Live Kids, B.O.O.K.S. and Healthy Teeth for Life. Linda Millar from Concerned Children’s Advertisers gave the key note address.
Fifteen display tables offered information on many aspects of caring for children, and wonderful door prizes donated by local businesses and agencies were given away throughout the day.
Participants not only enjoyed delicious refreshments and lunch provided by a local caterer, but were also entertained at lunch by Punjabi and First Nations children in their native dances.
Canvas tote bags containing valuable information as well as a book, stickers, crafts ideas, games, songs and activities were presented to each participant to take home.
Comments from the conference evaluation included, “Thank you for such invaluable planning and organizational work and effort”, “Can’t wait for the next conference”, “Fabulous”.
