Child Development Workshops
Simplicity Learning offers a variety of workshops on topics of great interest to parents, teachers and caregivers.
These live conversation-based trainings (for adults only) are conducted at our office in Bellevue, or we can also arrange visits to your PTSA group, class parents’ meeting, or back to school night at your child’s center or school. Please contact info@simplicitylearning.org with your request or inquiry for visiting parent education evenings or daytime events.
