POSITIVE PARENTING FROM THE BARN

POSITIVE PARENTING FROM THE BARN is a personal look at parenting from a
horse¹s point of view. The course is an interactive equine assisted learning
activity that takes learning from the classroom into the practical arena of
living and breathing, feeling, and sometimes frustrating equine mentors.
Activities help us to discover and understand ourselves as parents by
accepting, challenging, and teaching us about the way we relate to one
another. The outdoor experience, and unexpected responses of each horse¹s
unique personality help us to gain insight directing the course for becoming
the best parent we can be.


WHEN: Monday, September 14, 21, 28, & October 5, 9am to 1pm or
Monday, September 14, 21, 28 and October 5, from 4:30 pm to
6:30 pm.
WHERE: 4 miles south of Ostrander, Mn. on county road 1 at
Turning Point Stable.
FEES: Each session is $12 per family.

RAISING CAPABLE KIDS

RAISING CAPABLE KIDS is a program designed to equip parents, teachers,
coaches and mentors for the task of preparing young people to be resilient,
intelligent. The focus on three basic perceptions and four skills builds
problem-solving skills and prepares young people to face life¹s challenges
and navigate relationships at home and the work place.

Former participants have said:
³I love the idea of parenting 'Capable Kids' that there is actually joy in
parenting, not just chores and work. It¹s never too late to change for the
better, but it does take knowing how and practicing what you learn.²
³It is beneficial for any age parent or grandparent, teacher or mentor.²
³It has taken the frustration out of discipline.²
²This was all new to me.²
³I loved the idea of self-reliant children instead of self-indulgent
children. It really helps focus on being a contribution to the family.²
³The horses created a memorable experience that I didn¹t expect.²
³I would wholeheartedly recommend this course!²

Equine assisted activities play a large part of the unique learning
experience, providing a practical and in the moment interaction with living
breathing, feeling and sometimes frustrating horse mentors. Participants
will also have two books for reference, a workbook, and each activity is
accompanied by professional video instruction. The multi-dimensional
instruction provides optimal learning methods for each person.

WHEN: October 12, 19, 26, November 2, and 9 from 5 PM 8 PM

Stable.
