St. Paul’s Parent’s Exchange
Sundays, 10:00AM – 11:00AM in the classroom wing, Sept-June
Parents Exchange allows parents to share about the joys and challenges of parenthood, seek support from each other, and learn from each others’ experiences. There is normally an informal discussion about a new topic each week. We occasionally have guest appearances from parenting resource experts.
Your children can spend time in the nursery or participate in Godly Play or S.P.Y. during this time.
Upcoming Topics:
Month 4: The Inner World of a Child (January)
This month explores the emotional landscape of our children and ourselves.
January 4: Raising Resilient Kids. What does it take for a child to be resilient in the face of setbacks, big and small? How do we help our kids understand how to manage expectations in a healthy way while still preserving hope, positivity, and our faith in them?
January 11: Encouraging Independence and Responsibility. From teaching toddlers to clean up their toys to encouraging teens to take on more chores, this topic has a lot of depth.
January 18: Managing Our Own Anger. Our children’s behavior can trigger big emotions in us. Let’s talk about the struggle and how to stay calm and connected.
January 25: The Parent as a Lifelong Learner. What are some of our own parenting “mistakes” that taught us the most valuable lessons?
