Playgroups empowering children through Engage

Playgroups empowering children through Engage

The ability for children to self-regulate their emotions is a a huge indicator for success later in life. Safari Multicultural Playgroups now have an adapted version for our communities, of the Engage programme: a nationwide programme to help children cultivate their emotional, cognitive and behavioural skills through game playing. It was developed by Associate Professor Dione Healey of Otago University, and is based on research findings from the Dunedin longitudinal study.
