Re:      July Wellness Webinars

June 29, 2021

It seems like for most of us with k-12 students' school just went back in session and before we knew it, they were out on summer break. Although it was a year with challenges and adaptations, they made it and so did you! During this time, it is helpful for parents to consider their child's need for structure, education, exercise, social contact, and appropriate leisure time.
As part of our commitment to the health and well-being of our campus community, UCR's Faculty/Staff Wellness Program will be offering two workshops with expert leaders from our Faculty and Staff Assistant Program to provide us with information, tools, and resources, as we transition back to normalcy for our children and ourselves.
Whether you have a younger child at home or a child that is now very tech-savvy learn how to engage in creative play and become a tech-savvy parent!

Engaging in Creative Play with Children
Tuesday, July 13, 2021 | 12:00 -1:00 p.m.
There is much evidence to support the benefits of pretend or creative play for children. In this session we will examine how creative play benefits children in their cognitive, social and emotional development. Creative play also furthers the bond between parents and children. This session will look at how engaging in creative play benefits adults in the areas of stress relief, increased self-esteem and problem solving.

Kids and Computers: Becoming a Cyber-Savvy Parent
Thursday, July 29, 2021 | 12:00 -1:00 p.m.

In a relatively short timeframe, computers have gone from being a space-age dream to an everyday reality for many people at work, home and school. Children are learning how to use computers at younger ages- many are more computer-savvy than their parents! How does a parent support the need for their children to be familiar with computers in today's society without letting the computer dominate their child's time?
