Participants will also learn about how Multiple Intelligence and using a variety of learning styles can support children's learning. Helping Kids take Lessons Learned and Apply to Everyday Living-Barb has developed curriculum around training children to develop a Biblical World View. Teaching them to apply Christian Principles while living in today's world. Children need to see how the Word applies to their lives and how to live it in everyday life. This session includes hands-on and interactive activities. Making Church School Fun and Engaging-Children learn best when able to actively engage in what they are learning. This session helps Children's Ministers and Workers create active and engaging lessons allowing children to explore, engage, and participate. Lessons and activities are designed to teach the principle of loving God and living a Christian World View. Parenting Train a Child in the Way They Should Go- Barb is a firm believer that the old saying “Do what I say and not what I do” does not work and never did. In this session she talks about how important it is for parents not just have a Biblical World View but to live according Deuteronomy 6:6-8. Talking about their faith constantly. Sharing not just the what but the why. Teaching children to develop a real relationship with Christ. Find Your Purpose and Help your Children Find Theirs- Barb is a firm believer that parenting is all about leadership. Leaders can not lead where they have not been. Each person on Earth was sent here by God with a purpose. A large part off pleasing Him is finding, developing and living, our God given purpose. Until adults engage in this process they can not pass this way of life off to their children. The goal of this session is to help parents think through this process and how it can be passed along to the next generation. This session is appropriate for a weekend event. She suggest churches use it as a fund-raising community event. Becoming a Psalms 78:6 Congregation-This session is about creating a Biblical World View for passing on our beliefs to the next generation and those that follow. It is not just important to train up our children in the way they should go. We also need to train them to bring up the next generation in the same way. This only happens when everyone in the congregation is not only accepting of the idea but actively engaged in it. This sessions lays out the path to get there. Early Childhood Quality Childcare Many politicians, news and print media, and spokes people are talking about quality child care. However, most people have no idea what that really means. Barb uses the contents of her book Journey's Through Parenthood Volume One: An Educator Leads you Down the Path to Quality Child Care to train parents, child care providers, business leaders, and other interested community members what quality is and what it takes to achieve and maintain it in a consistent way. Safety Plans in ECE Most states in the South including Georgia do not require that child care centers have a written Disaster Safety Plan. Barb is very passionate about child care centers not only having a written plan but practicing each part of the plan on a regular basis. This session can be seen as being primarily for owners and directors but, safety is a team effort. Owners, directors, and staff need to know that creating and using a Disaster Plan only works when the team works it. The Important of Social/Emotional/Moral Development Many adults fail to recognize the importance of developing a strong sense of self, empathy, peer relationships, and self-control in young children (3-5). In this session Barb discusses developing these areas before children focus on academic learning. Barbara Harvey Speaking History Barbara has been speaking since 1993.
