Okanagan – Kids for Inquiry: Chiller

June 28, 2014 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Dr Janice Snyder, professor of psychology at UBC-Okanagan, will give a presentation on the science of attention and focus. (If you haven’t already done so, don’t tell your kids about the gorilla in the basketball game!)
She will then lead the kids in a guided meditation, practising the art of attention, as well as relaxation.

This activity can contribute to your child’s “Chiller” patch at DIY.org.https://diy.org/skills/chiller

Because this event involves a presentation and meditation, it is recommended for kids age 8 and older. If your child is unable to be fairly still and quiet, please take them to the park rather than to this KFI gathering. 😉

Each child should bring a comfy cushion to sit on!

More details to follow.

The RSVP list on Meetup will be taken as definitive:
