As parents or caregivers, you’ll have the opportunity to chat with our educators about preparing your child for their Kindergarten journey. Plus, each session your child attends, they’ll receive a FREE book to enjoy reading at home. We hope to see you at as many sessions as possible for a head start on a great educational adventure!

 Are you interested in participating in a SFU Child Development Research Project

The Grow to Care lab at Simon Fraser University is inviting families to participate in fun, interactive projects. One study is for families to 10–12-year-olds to help better understand how screen use and online platforms influence child development. The other study is for families of 6–9-year-olds to research how children’s positive emotions develop. Please review the attached flyers for more information.
