Parenting Moments

presented by Healthier Urban Families at Wayne State University

December 2024

Welcome to the month of December.  For many families December is an interesting mix of anticipation, fun, and stress.  While children are excited about the holidays and time off from school, parents share that excitement along with long to-do lists as well as figuring out how to keep children cared for and entertained during holiday break. Please see the list of fun activities to enjoy with your children during the month of December along with the PowerPoint on managing holiday stress.  We have enjoyed our 2024 Parenting Moments with you and look forward to seeing you next year!
