JOYFUL FAMILY CAMP

 

Raising Tweens and Teens is a whole new ball game!

Are you feeling disconnected from your young adolescent?  Wondering where did your sweet baby go? Do you fear that the moody, snarky child showing up in your house today is the person your teen will always be.

Are you at your wits end trying to monitor and limit your kids’ screen time?

Does even the most innocent conversation with your tween or teen feel like negotiating landmines?

It’s time to GET CLEAR and RECONNECT.

•Go from second guessing yourself to gaining clarity about your core values and knowing what battles to fight
•Unplug from the world and plug into your family with a mini digital detox
•Spend time face to face with your teens where they can’t hide in their room or on their devices. 

At Joyful Family Camp you will 

•Learn how to talk so your kids will listen and listen so your teens will talk
•Get clarity about what kind of family you want to be—how you will treat each other and how you will show up in the world
•Co-create and agree in writing to a Family Connection Plan

Come to beautiful California for this unique 4 day, 3 night retreat.

Enjoy all the fun of summer camp (games, activities and s’mores!) while you and your kids build concrete communication skills that will allow you to work together joyously to identify your family values and create a family mission statement.  

Armed with a family mission statement (and a group family vision board) you will work together to create a roadmap to peace, flow and harmony in your home.

A WONDERFUL Long Weekend

The first evening we’ll gather to get to know each other and set our intentions for the weekend.

That’s followed by two full days of learning, collaboration and camp fun, ending with s’mores around the campfire.

Our last day we will bring all our learning together with a step-by-step family meeting so you leave camp with firm agreements among you about what is needed for the whole family to thrive.
