This panel discussion explores the role of rest and recreation in scaffolding our tweens and teens to a satisfying launch. Panelists will connect clips from the award-winning documentary, Chasing Childhood, which focuses on three tri-state communities, including Wilton, and considers many elements of what makes a healthy upbringing.
A Q&A will follow the panel. This event will take place at Wilton Library (Registration required) and is most appropriate for parents/caregivers with teens and tweens. Prior to attending, we encourage participants to view Chasing Childhood documentary, which is free on Youtube here.
