At the next meeting the speaker will talk about anxiety and how twins
are impacted. Separation from parent or caregiver, separation from the
other twin, preschool entry and anxiety from separation to an
occassional caregiver (babysitter).
You will receive a copy of the book “The Kissing Hand.” The use of
specific coping methods will be discussed. Bring your tips for other
parents to use. Hope to see you there.

weather, we decided to keep the theme!

our website for more details of the location)
Are you inundated with `too much stuff’ because of all the new
Christmas goodies? Sift through your toys and clothes and bring items
you want to give away to the twins’ club. At the meeting, families
can exchange items and decide which `new’ gifts they would like to take
home with them. The remainder will be donated to a charity.
There will be tables set up where you can spread out your gear!
Our wonderful University Hill secondary students will be helping again
with the little ones with various activities, including arts & crafts,
dress-up and reading so the parents can concentrate on choosing new
items and chatting about the holidays.

On Sept. 7th - as we roll into fall - it’s a perfect time to welcome
our guest Rowena List. She has a business called Getting it
Together. www.gettingittogether.com
Her speciality is de-cluttering/organizing…
I saw her speak at another parents’ group and she was well received.
You were able to take away some good tips to get started even in the
simplest of ways or areas of your house. (children’s artwork; shoes;
memory boxes etc.)
Rowena will be speaking for the first hour of the meeting - which
includes lots of time for questions!
It would be great to see as many of you as possible!
If you have any specific questions or areas of interest you’d like her
to cover, please send them my way and I’ll send her a compiled list.
The time will be the same as usual (10:00 - 12:00 a.m). Its at the usual location at the MFRC, location on the web site with parking instructions.
