August 15: Workshop 1: Making the Most of the Early Learning Years
The first in a series of
workshops for parents and teachers, offering tools and
inspiration designed to support you in being the best that you can be so the
children in your lives can be the best they can be! How can
parents and teachers keep the spark of creativity alive in every child and go
the extra mile to cultivate the Blossoming of their potential? Saturday,
August 15th, 2009,
Parenting and teaching children is the #1 Most Important job on the planet! The way we care for and talk with babies and young children and the environments we create with and for them are vital to their unfolding potential.
Each of us is born with a Purpose. Our Dreams/Visions for ourselves serve as a natural spark in the form of Curiosity, Passion and Joy that feeds that Purpose. This spark, which holds within it each individual’s Potential for the fulfillment of that Purpose, needs a nurturing, caring, safe and supportive environment to allow the germinating, growth and ultimate blossoming of the full Potential that lives in each one of us.
How can parents and teachers help to keep this vision – this spark -alive in every child? How can we go the extra mile and intentionally cultivate the Blossoming of that natural Potential in all children?
Connect with other parents and teachers in an atmosphere of trust, respect and inquiry. You will increase your awareness, your patience and your understanding of what you need to cultivate both within yourself and within the children in your life, to experience this Blossoming both in yourself and in them!

Dr. Jewels Maloney has an M.Ed. and
Ed.D. in Creativity and is a former teacher of young children and professor of
education. Jewels started learning from young children in the early 1980’s in
early childhood centers in
Jewels taught teachers the same way she
wanted them to teach children – using nature and the arts as pathways to both
learning and expression, interweaving the entire curriculum in and around
natural connections and meaning making, creating a community of equals, honoring
all diversity, and removing grading and competition from the university and
elementary school classroom. Jewels has founded two nature- based schools for
children to demonstrate that they can create their own curriculum, naturally and
effectively through play.
