Let’s Navigate 🧭 Puberty with Confidence!

🙋🏽 Puberty is a time of big changes—physically, emotionally, and socially. While boys may get some information in school, they often don’t have the chance to ask the questions they want to. That’s where Turning Teen steps in, providing a safe, welcoming space where boys can learn and ask those important questions.

In this class, boys will explore:

✅ The basics of their bodies and how they work
✅ Differences between boys’ and girls’ bodies
✅ How puberty changes both the body and brain
✅ The importance of respecting their own body and others’ boundaries
✅ Emotions specific to pre-teens during puberty

This class, led by Dr. Carrie Leff, an experienced physician specializing in internal medicine and pediatrics, equips boys with the knowledge and confidence they need to navigate puberty. Dr. Leff, co-author of a book on puberty, brings her expertise and passion to helping kids and parents through this pivotal stage of life.

💪🏼 Empower your child with the tools to understand and embrace this new chapter with confidence.

✨ We all know there are 5 senses, but did you know there are actually 8?

✨ And these extra three might have you asking questions like, why can’t my child sit still or why do they go from 0-60 in an instant? 🤔

In addition to sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell, we also have:
🔹 Proprioception: the sense of body awareness, helping us know where our limbs are without looking.
🔹 Vestibular: our balance and movement sense helps with coordination and spatial orientation.
🔹 Interoception: internal body awareness—like sensing hunger, needing to use the bathroom, or even feeling emotions like anxiety.

Understanding these senses can unlock a new way of supporting your child’s unique needs! 💡

Join Occupational Therapist, Jessica Ravineala for our Intro to Sensory Processing - A Class for Parents to learn how to navigate these senses and help your child thrive!

📅 Thursday, November 7th, 5:30-7PM

Let’s decode the eight senses together! 🧠💙
