Caregiver Workshop: Self Esteem and Resilience in the Early Years. Everyone wants children to be resilient and have strong self-esteem. We want children to feel good about themselves, but can adults give children self-esteem? Does it come from hearing “good job” all day or is there something else we should be doing or not doing. You might be surprised by the dos and don’ts. Learn the ins and outs of helping children develop inner-strength and a positive sense of themselves. While caregivers hear the presentation and have time for questions, children ages 2-4 can play in the Story Trove with Librarians and Play Assistants from Trove Time.
