Description:
Please join us as we dive deep into taking a social emotional approach to biting. Biting brings up so many emotions for everyone involved and is a developmentally appropriate behavior for infants and toddlers. During our time together we will focus on the many reasons why biting occurs, ways to stay calm and curious when it happens, and strategies for how to respond. Throughout the training, participants will reflect on questions and skills that will guide them in creating an action plan and communicating with families.

Description:
Challenging behaviors are often the result of unmet needs. Hear about five causes of challenging behavior and then learn about the ten important social and emotional needs of children and what you can do to meet those needs. When needs are met through relationships, children will behave better and be ready to learn.
