Greetings!
Hopefully most of you are still enjoying the last days of summer holiday, but before we know it another year of school is just around the corner. Organized moms are already thinking about after school activities, and having discussions with anxious children about first day blues.
Behaviour Matters has completed its first ever Summer Cool Tools Camp. What a success it's been with lots of fun activities, outdoor games, and cool snacks. Most of all, children learned coping strategies to deal with uncomfortable situations, making new friends, teasing and bullying, and back to school anxieties.
"Cool Tools Summer Camp brought out the best in our child. Talking about and practicing the skills gave her the confidence to take the next step and feel better about playing with kids at recess." DK.
