DescriptionThis full-day workshop explores how Fred Rogers’ six fundamentals—self-worth, trust, curiosity, the capacity to look and listen, play, and solitude—serve as the essential "anchors" for early literacy. By focusing on these simple yet deep human needs, educators will gain practical strategies to nurture lifelong learners through play, the "real work" of childhood.

Amy Vandament from The Book Vine for Children and Aiesha Rahn, early childhood consultant and IMH-E®, will showcase high-quality books that perfectly align with these core values. You’ll learn how to create a supportive "neighborhood" where children feel safe and adults welcome every "why" and "how," knowing that curiosity is the very heart of learning.

Join us to discover how great literature can reinforce a child’s sense of self-worth, spark their wonder, and encourage the capacity to look and listen carefully.
