BROOKINGS – The Child and Family Resource Network at South Dakota State University will hold four free parenting classes in person at the Brookings Public Library in January. These classes focus on helping parents discover what their children’s behaviors could mean.
The classes, for parents of children birth to age 3, will run from 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesdays, starting Jan. 5 and running through Jan. 26. The Brookings Public Library is located at 513 Third St. Remote learning is also an option.
Registration is required and can be completed by calling 605-688-5730, sending an email to [email protected] or visiting online at www.sdstate.edu/cfrn.
The class topics include:
• Jan. 5 – Why I Do What I Do: This class explains your child’s behavior as they think, learn and feel with strategies to encourage your child’s development.
• Jan. 12 – Keep Me Safe: This class will give you tips to keep your home a safe place for your child to grow and learn.
