Connections for Life: Attachment Resource Kit - English

Connections for Life: Attachment Resource Kit

Guide and Manual, 2007


This kit provides educational resources and tools for those who work with families. The kit provides evidence-based information on what attachment means, why it is important, what influences it, and what we can do to help promote healthy, secure attachment relationships.

The tools for supporting families are the “Attachment Activities”. These are simple, enjoyable activities that parents and other caregivers can do with children to help promote the development of healthy, secure attachment relationships. There are seven activities that can be done with a child of any age; a list of activities that can be done before the baby is born; and a list of parenting myths and what we know now to facilitate discussion. The “Attachment Activities” include: “Group Guidelines” that provide suggestions for how to introduce the activities to parent groups in a strength-based way, using adult education techniques; and “Handouts” for parents with brief descriptions of the activities. Each “Attachment Activity” is independent of the others, so you can introduce one, some, or all of the activities, depending on what works best for you.

All of the materials are available in both English and French.

Note – The information in this kit should not be used to diagnose children or provide therapy. Only trained professionals should provide diagnosis or therapy.

    To Be a Father (I Am Your Child Video Series)

    Video, 2005


    New research has shown that fathers can have an enormous impact on children – from how well they succeed in school, to how they get along with their friends.

    This generation of dads is responding to the challenge, by taking a more active role in everything from changing diapers to helping with homework … and it’s paying off, as you’ll hear from men who talk about the rewards of being close to their kids.

    This video provides information on:

    • How fathering begins even before the baby is born
    • How dads can connect with their children right from the start
    • What fathers can do to foster a close relationship with their children – even when they live miles apart
    • How fathers can overcome the challenges of parenting under special circumstances, like separation and divorce
