Parenting With the Holiday Spirit: Free Workshop

Are you getting frustrated that holidays have become more about receiving than giving? How do you teach your children this? What can you do for your family NOW to make memories for the future?! In this workshop, parents will learn how to find the “spirit of the holidays” by incorporating practical tips, doing more “giving activities” as a family and establishing traditions during the holiday season. Learn to appreciate the holiday season by slowing down and being genuinely “in the moments with your family” and making this season you will literally not forget.

Join us on Dec. 9th, Tuesday evening from 7 - 8 pm at the Florida Holistic School of Living on 622 A. North Thorton Ave. Orlando, Fl 32803 or call 407.595.3731.

We hope to see you there!
