Workshops for Parents, Teachers and Caregivers

Parenting Counts

A parent is a child’s first teacher. In this workshop, participants discuss what it means to be a “good parent.” The workshop equips parents with ideas and tools necessary to handle the every day stresses of life. Join KUED for some fun tips and ideas to cope with those “little challenges.”

Families

Purpose: To explore the diversity that exists in individual family units. Also, to encourage family time and help parents have fun with their children by playing games and being silly.

Poster Descriptions: Every family is different! What is your family like? Join KUED as we explore and celebrate the diversity of individual families. What makes your family special? We will have TV programs, great stories and treats. See you there!

Respecting Cultures

People everywhere do things different but the same everyday. Learn how to help you child appreciate our "similarities" and celebrate the many different cultures of the world.

We will take you on a journey around the nation and around the world as we say "Hello" and "Hola" to our friends around the world through books and story telling we illustrate how to include diversity into your everyday conversations.

Safety First!

Purpose: To encourage children to be safe at home, at school and …anywhere else.
