Asian Festival of Children’s Content
21—24 May 2026

As spaces for this session are limited, priority will be given to registrants on a first-come-first-served basis. We regret that we will not accept walk-ins if the session is full. Please pre-register for the workshop.

In the Early Childhood sector, there is a push for the teaching of values and social-emotional competencies. Yet, many are unsure how to begin. This workshop helps participants understand how these non-traditional subjects require more than just step-by-step instructions. The essentials of teaching values will be shared, and participants will have the opportunity to experience them through books.
