Being an Adopted Child

The speaker will give a personal perspective on being and growing up as an adopted child.

Developmental Activities for Kids

This is a workshop for adults who interact with children. The presenter will discuss developmentally appropriate activities for various age groups and can include hands-on activities with or without children. This is a great program for parents, grandparents, or those who are caregivers to children of all ages.

Sane Parenting-It Makes You "Crazy"

Successful parenting is hard work as any parent knows. It isn't an innate talent, so this presentation is geared toward helping individuals develop an understanding of how to be a successful parent.

Linda Cowden, Counselor
Target Audiences: AG

The Word is "Love"

The presenter will have some fun applying developmental psychology theory to some home videos and hopefully create a lively discussion on parenting. The presenter brings to this presentation his own experience of raising two girls, a Masters of Education in Counseling, and a background in teaching developmental psychology at the college level and teaching workshops for the Family Court of St. Louis entitled, "Parenting During a Divorce."
