We started the session by conducting a thorough needs analysis, where parents openly shared their concerns, worries, and the areas they wished to learn more about to become even better parents.

🌞 days 3 & 4
Days 3 and 4 of the Parenting Education Seminar at GSIS Village Elementary School 👀
🌟Day’s Recap!
We had insightful discussions about the two strategies from The Virtues Project: Recognizing Teachable Moments and Setting Clear Boundaries.
During our sessions, we explored practical ways to recognize those precious moments when we can impart important life lessons to our children. We discovered how these teachable moments, when approached with patience and understanding, can have a profound impact on their character development.
Additionally, we discussed the importance of boundaries to instill structure, mutual respect, and positive behaviors through consistency and open communication. It was heartwarming to witness the shared experiences and open discussions among the parents present. Their willingness to learn and grow together was truly inspiring.
By incorporating these Virtues Project strategies into our parenting, we can create a nurturing environment that supports our children’s growth, character, and well-being.
We extend our gratitude to all the parents who actively participated in the discussion, and we encourage everyone to continue implementing these strategies in their daily interactions with their children.
