Tackling Technology – Catherine Buckler – 10:30 am

Feel like you’re constantly asking your child to “turn that thing off?” Whether it’s video consoles, computers, tablets or smart phones, you may be starting to feel like electronics are ruling your child’s life, making you tempted to shut them down and unplug them entirely. In this workshop, we will explore some of the problems caused by excessive electronic use, as well as ways to set limits around technology and ideas for improving connections with your children through technology.

Coffee, doughnuts, and a sitter service will be on hand to make the decision really easy for you.
