Some of the basic needs of childhood are

LOVE and EMOTIONAL CONNECTION.

 

These connections make learning possible. Connections on the outside (with other people) actually create and strengthen connections on the inside (within the brain).*    Connections are also the foundation for a child’s willingness to cooperate.  Connection Builders is a practice designed to help families, children, and educators by offering therapeutic, enrichment and educational interventions to assist in navigating through the challenges of life. Services are based on current brain research, child development information and age appropriate practices with the goal of providing systematic changes in schools and homes.
