Kidproof Training Available Over The Holidays
Prince George, B.C. – With Christmas just days away, it’s unlikely the ‘tweens in your life need any distraction right now, but the Family YMCA is offering up some post-Christmas workshops to keep them occupied.
The ‘Kidproof: At Home Alone’ workshop is being offered on Wednesday, December 28th at the Massey Drive location. Recreation Coordinator, Colleen Bush, says there will be two classes to choose from: 10am until 12noon, or 1pm until 3pm. The cost is $30 for members or $35 for non-members. The program prepares those between the ages of 8 and 12 years for this new responsibility.
The Family Y is also offering the ‘Kidproof Babysitter Training’ workshop for kids 11 to 14-years of age on Thursday, December 29th. The program runs from 9am until 5pm, again at 2020 Massey Drive. It costs $55 for members and $60 for non-members.
Anyone wanting more information can call Colleen Bush at 250-562-9341 x 266.

Just a thought about this course. Maybe the Y can also offer a course on how to “schoolproof” yer kid. It’s a simple as teaching him/her how to read just before they enter Grade One. Obviously some teachers have some shortcomings in this regard. So the kid can’t read at his/her proper level? Pass him/her anyways. Think of the kid’s self esteem first and foremost. Save a lot of time and effort organizing the “Raise a Reader” campaign every year.
