2021 Conference Cancelled... but wait!
After much thought and conversation, we regret to inform you that the decision has been made to
cancel the 2021 Connections Conference.
Although there will be no 2021 conference, we have planned two FREE virtual sessions (on Zoom) with Dr. Diane Craft, our scheduled keynote for the 2020 conference.
PLAY AND MOVEMENT WITH INFANT AND TODDLERS - March 20, 2021 9:00 - 10:30am
About: Learn numerous physical activities to play with young infants, mobile infants, and toddlers to enhance their movement skills and brain development. Drawn from the Nurturing Pathways® and Active Play! curricula, each developmentally appropriate activity is designed to enhance young children’s sensory and motor system as well as enhance brain development. Implement the physical activities with infants for a few minutes at a time and help infants experience the joy of movement. Lead groups of toddlers in more advanced physical activities that are fun, inclusive, and require only inexpensive equipment and work in small spaces.
