Parental Education

At the Institute of Early Childhood Education and Development (IECED), we are dedicated to partnering with parents to ensure the best outcomes for their children’s education. Our comprehensive parental support initiatives include awareness sessions, counseling sessions, and activity-based workshops designed to empower parents with knowledge and practical skills.

Awareness Sessions

We offer a series of awareness sessions that cover a wide range of essential topics for parents of young children. These include understanding child development stages, fostering early literacy, nurturing social and emotional skills, and applying positive discipline techniques. We also focus on promoting nutrition and healthy eating habits, building strong parent-child relationships, ensuring digital safety by managing screen time, and highlighting the role of play in early learning. Additionally, we guide preparing your child for school transitions and supporting bilingual or multilingual development in the early years. Beyond these topics, we regularly organize other awareness sessions tailored to the evolving needs of parents, ensuring they have the tools and knowledge necessary for effective parenting.

Counseling Sessions

Our counseling sessions are designed to offer personalized support to parents, addressing their specific concerns and challenges. We guide in various areas, including behavior management strategies for young children, managing stress and parental burnout, and resolving family conflicts. We also offer support for parents of children with special needs, navigate parenting in blended families, and guide school readiness and academic concerns. Additionally, our sessions cover emotional support for parents facing life transitions, counseling for achieving work-life balance, communication strategies for strengthening family bonds and preparing for the teenage years. Beyond these topics, we also collaborate with schools to offer tailored counseling sessions and adapt to emerging needs as they arise, ensuring that parents receive relevant and timely support.

Activity-Based Workshops

Our activity-based workshops are interactive sessions designed to equip parents with practical tools and engaging activities to enhance their children’s learning and development. We offer workshops on a variety of topics, including Creative Play to boost cognitive development, Storytelling Techniques to enhance language skills, and DIY Educational Toys for creating learning tools at home. Additionally, we provide sessions on Arts and Craft Activities to stimulate creativity, Mindfulness, and Relaxation Techniques for children, and Fun Math Games to make learning numbers exciting. Parents can also participate in workshops on Science Experiments that can be conducted at home, Encouraging Early Writing Skills through Play, Music, and Movement Activities for physical development, and Building a Reading Routine with tips and tricks. These workshops are organized periodically to support parents in their children’s upbringing and guidance, and we continuously adapt and add new activities based on emerging needs and interests.
