Group & Specialist Programs
Some children take longer than others to learn social skills. Common skills that some children struggle with include:
-
conversation skills – for example, choosing what to talk about or what body language to use
-
play skills – for example, taking turns in a game or sharing a toy
-
emotional skills – for example, managing emotions and understanding how others feel
-
problem-solving skills – for example, dealing with conflict or making decisions in a social situation.
Social skills can help your child make friends, learn from others and develop hobbies and interests. These skills can also help with family relationships and give your child a sense of belonging.
Our Social Skills Groups are facilitated by trained practitioners and aim to help children of all ages to develop and improve their social and emotional skills .
Depending on the age of participants in the groups, each group will usually include:
-
Peer-to-peer interaction
-
Turn-taking
-
Develop pretend play
-
Collaboration and negotiation
