Jewish Grandparent UniverSity

Did you know that more grandparents than ever are playing an active, almost daily role in the lives of theirgrandchildren? This is uncharted territory, as the baby boomers are a new generation of grandparents whocan actively engage with their grandchildren in many ways that previous generations could not. Set thegroundwork for an incredible relationship with your children and their little ones by joining us for an opendiscussion in Jewish Grandparent University. Jewish storytelling is woven throughout this class as youponder how to connect with your grandchildren and encourage their Jewish upbringing.

Additionally, a few years ago we surveyed our Jewish Baby University recent graduates and asked them togive us some insight on what was most helpful to them after the births of their children, what waschallenging, and what were their expectations of their parents, as grandparents. We share the results ofthat survey with the class and offer guidance on how to have conversations with your kids about thesepotential issues. Facilitated by Dr. Daniel Hettleman, Ph.D., P.C.

$20 per attendee

April 24, 2018 Helping grandparents and grandparents-to-be learn waysto support your children in becoming parents for the firsttime, while passing on Jewish family values and traditions.
