Cultivate Connection Tee

Before we focus on any skill with children, we must first focus on cultivating a connection.  When we tune into children, it gives them the message that they matter, that they are important, that they are loved, and that they are worth our time. But like the blooming of flowers, connection is an impermanent state. The connection we form between ourselves and each child ebbs and flows. Each interaction provides us a new opportunity to re-connect and maintain the experience of being connected over time.
