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
