The Importance of Play in Child Development and Emotional Wellbeing
Monday, June 9, 2025 | 6-7 p.m. CT
Play is essential for a child's development, but it's not always easy for parents-especially when play feels stressful or kids struggle with independent play. Join Emily Perepa, LCSW, ICST and Chanelle Ramos-Doucette, Psy.D. for a live discussion to explore the benefits of play, practical strategies to increase connection and confidence, and when and how to encourage kids to play independently.
Registration is required for this free, virtual event held in recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month.
