Wednesday, April 8, 2015 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon And the winner is... Program for families with infants set For the first time in years, Together For Children will focus on families with infants in Sisters. A kick-off to the new group will happen Tuesday, April 14, from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the Sisters Park & Recreation building next to Sisters High School. It will continue for nine weeks, giving parents and their infants time to connect with other families with chil- dren in the same age group. Information pertinent to the first year of life will be shared, along with discussion of con- cerns and issues that arise. Much is known about the importance of the first three years of a child’s life, a time when rapid growth and devel- opment take place. A young child learns more during these months than at any other time of their lives. Crucial to this is brain development and relationship building, which depends on the connections created between parents and infant during this period. The more a parent knows about expected growth and stages the better prepared they are to handle situations that might arise. This Together For Children group will aid parents in understanding the important role they play in the life of their little one, while creating a spontaneous fun atmosphere where friendships that can last for years develop and flourish. Parents will learn how to communicate with their infants, enjoy the fun of shar- ing baby bounces, singing and rhymes, learn what it means to build a respectful relationship and develop an understand- ing of who they are as a par- ent. All of this will take place in a collegial atmosphere of support. Many parents of newborns find themselves isolated from friends and families due to the demands of caring for a young child. Together For Children creates a bridge from feeling alone and having a community to depend upon. Sharing with other parents and learning they are experiencing many of the same challenges is often all that is needed to assure the enjoyment of watching a child develop during the first year. The group is designed for the non-walking youngster.
