Meet Laysond, a participant in our Personalized Recovery Oriented Services (PROS) program. Laysond has attended group classes at PROS since 2005 and, more recently, he’s taken on new responsibilities as a peer tutor and doctors' assistant. He loves all the ways that PROS allows him to build his social skills and discover new hobbies like gardening! He hopes to one day use what he’s learned in PROS to get a job in maintenance or IT services. #wearebcs #BCSPROS

By spending time outdoors, they can tend to plants, grow their food, and enjoy the hands-on experience of digging in the soil, getting a little messy, and watching their hard work blossom.

Simulated play, like gardening 🪴, is a great vehicle for teaching kids complex topics. As an added benefit, being outside is also great for their health and emotional regulation. When it comes to planting seeds and growing things (wealth) this is a great way to casually demonstrate: Planning things out 🗓️ Taking time, care, and patience in the process ⏱️ Waiting for the results 🧘♂️ Taking pride in the work 💪 Seasons and cycles 🍂 And resilience (like when deer eat the vegetables) 💟 #certifiedfinancialplanner #moneytalk #learnthroughplay

Teaching kids how to save starts with play 🪄 They need to practice things like how to plan, how to celebrate, how to conserve, and how to handle things that come out of the blue. Gardening is a great, emotionally, neutral playing field to introduce complex topics to kids in a way that is developmentally conducive; especially between the ages of 7-10. Data shows that these are the ages when they observe and form beliefs around money and resources. 🌱 #certifiedfinancialplanner #moneytalk #savingstips
