INTRODUCTION JUNCTION
HELLO HEYHI!!!
Gahh! I'm SO excited that you're here.
You've made the excellent decision to be intentional about creating a healthier, more playful, balanced home.
This online course is your jumpstart to getting your family on the path toward enjoying and experiencing the deep benefits of PLAY.
Welcome welcome!! I'm Şeniz, Founder of OYNA:Wellness through PLAY where we offer day camps for kids, women's retreats, and online course for parents amongst other play opportunities for people in all stages of life.
This is our first program for the entire family, geared toward the whole team.
Give yourself a high five and say "congrats you for being here!"
This course is a comprehensive umbrella merging play theory and play practice in four sections. The intention here is to guide you toward building the TOOL BELT that works for you and your family.
What to expect in this online course: (AKA OYNA's PROMISE)
Accessibility: You don't need much to get going. Minimal materials, minimal set-up, all content designed to meet everyone where they are.
There is no SINGLE one way to do things that works for everyone. My job is to guide you through this steps so that you have confidence and flexibility to decide what works best for your circumstances.
Connection: We encourage connections with the Self, family relationships, and the community.
Fun: Enjoyment by creating clearings for laughter, openness and feeling good because feeling good is not to be trivialized.
I will guide you from "help! we need more play in our lives" to "we are on a roll!"
The FOUR Sections of this course are:
PLAYSICS: (Play + Basics) - This is a content download, I've been told it's a lot, but I'm only skimming the surface, okay! Benefits, types of play, ages and stages of play are a few topics covered here.
SPACE TIME CONTINUUM: Making actual space and actual time for play.
The SPORT of SUPPORT: Looking at all the different roles we play as parents and identifying some tools that work best within each role, finding some clarity around what tools might work best.
ROLLING: This section is all about practice, and general game play. Get that ball rolling.
This course is designed for a variety of learning styles. Each section will generally include a video/slideshow, written content, downloadable PDFs with info and/or activities...for hard copies to add to your Family Recess Three Ring Binder! (you'll be creating that in an upcoming section)
Pro tips: in the lower right corner of the video box there's a little gear icon. If you'd like to speed up or slow down the videos, you can do it there. The first two sections are a fartbarf of lots of info, I hope you enjoy the ride. ;)
