Navigating Big Feelings Before (and during) Camp!
This past May we were one of several Overnight Camps in the province who came together to offer our Ontario based families an opportunity to attend a session by the highly-esteemed, Emma Fogel, MSW. Emma has graciously allowed us to share the recording of her workshop with our greater Tawingo community.
Emma spent many summers as a camper and staff member at Overnight Camp, and brings her love of camp and her recognition of how important it can be in a child’s development to her practice.
Emma’s engaging workshop focused on building emotional resiliency in children and helping set them up for a positive and successful camp experience.
Topics Included:
A deeper understanding of emotional regulation in children and youth
Practical strategies to support a child’s success in preparation for, and during overnight camp
Guidelines to prepare for a technology detox at camp
How to promote skills to increase confidence and capacity through discomfort
