Self control.
Do you have it?
June’s Monthly Family Connect meeting will focus on helping children and parents with strategies to promote self control. The infamous marshmallow study done with children helps identify children who have self control is our inspiration. The longitudinal study revealed that children who possess self control:
- Score higher on college entrace exams
- Are less likely to abuse substances
- Are less likely to be impacted by obesity
- Have better social skills
If your family is attending our Family Connect event this Wednesday, June 19th, you’re in for a treat! The kiddos will go through our own marshmallow study, hear a story on self control and discuss strategies they can use to have self control daily. Adults will have a similar discussion focussing on how we can help our kiddos learn and practice self control at home.
See you on the 19th!
