The ART of Living Life
WHY IS LISTENING TO CHILDREN &
TEENS IMPORTANT?
Research confirms the importance of
listening to children.
1. EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT -
Talking & being heard helps children learn how
to express feelings, solve problems, and
understand others.
2. TEACHES RESPECT & COMMUNICATION -
When we listen to children, we model how
conversations should work. They learn how to
listen to others, disagree respectfully and
speak up without fear.
3. STRENGTHENS RELATIONSHIPS -
Listening supports healthy family relationships.
Children are much more likely to cooperate and
open up when they feel understood and
no dismissed.
'CHILD - FRIENDLY HOMES!"
Through the
years I've written three books on the subject, held parenting classes and have hosted numerous radio
shows on the subject.
I've had the fun of creating numerous
"child-friendly" homes, designing
unique places for each unique child.
And Now I'm delighted to be bringing
my years of parenting experience all together
and offering the above MASTER COURSE!
I sincerely hope YOU will join me!
Together We Learn...
Together We Grow!

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT SHARON:
Parenting Class:
Sharon has a wonderful way of mixing her presentation
to include discussion, sharing, individual exercises
and lecture which keeps the class upbeat,
personal, educational and interesting.
As a parent with experience as a parent educator it
has been valuable to re-visit known concepts, to
learn new perspectives, and to take
the time to re-focus on my own parenting.
Sharon's gentle voice and accepting manner
keep all the members of the class comfortable
sharing personal issues and eager to ask questions.

Sharon Wikoff is a beautiful kind soul
and an effective, nurturing, creatively aware
teacher for my daughter Angelina!! I highly
recommend her piano teaching and art classes
because my daughter has been growing and expanding
in her heart, mind and skills from both.
Sharon is patient, kind, loving and creates a very
nurturing environment that is palpable whether in
person or during online lessons. My daughter looks
forward to all her moments with Sharon.
Sharon is a stellar human being and we are
happy she's a part of our lives!
