Why do some children whimper quietly while others howl? Why are some children timid, and others gutsy? And why does a child who is so comfortable in one situation become distressed in another? This workshop will explore the factors of temperament that influence our behavior. While temperament need not limit a child’s life, parents’ understanding and appreciation of a child’s temperament can make daily life, and learning, easier and more successful.
