Parenting can be one of the toughest jobs in the world. One of the biggest challenge we face is to balance the daily stress of our careers and the needs of our family. To empower parents, Family Life Society (FLS) and KiasuParents jointly present a fun and engaging workshop specially-designed for parents and their kiddos (aged seven to 12)! This 3-hour interactive and creative session aims to improve the dynamics within families, enable parents and their children to relate better with one another, and to build strong, cohesive families.

<h2>About the workshop</h2>
Hear what a father (of two kids) has to share on the roles of Dad and Mom.  Moms are amazing, but Dads have an even bigger role to play these days.  During the workshop, everyone will come together as a family in three interactive segments filled with creative activities and exercises.  The segments will help you and your spouse learn how to re-engage your family’s dynamics, move away from digital distractions, and get back to a more personal and CREATIVE environment!
Creative Stories – Together as a family, play with simple story ideas and learn how to &#8220;re-imagine&#8221; them to come up with more exciting new stories.
Creative Games – It takes so little to make so much when we are creative. Challenge yourself and create a game for the whole family to participate!
Creative Play – Children learn through play.  So can adults! Have loads of fun while exploring the different roles of each family member through mirroring, movement exercises, and simple improvisations around family life.

The workshop will examine the factors and strategies that help contribute to the success of 21st century parenting.
