SOCIAL SKILLS
Our company host a Social Skills Group at our Ontario office every other week on Tuesdays from 4pm-5pm to encourage positive social interaction. During these social skills groups we provide the opportunity for our children to learn important skills they’ll use for the rest of their lives. Our goal is to give children the tools to improve social skills, emotional learning, and self-confidence. Our Social Skills Group is hosted by BCBA Gerson and BCBA Salena. Salena runs Social skills activities such as role playing, jeopardy, tic-tac-toe with topics/turn taking, sportsmanship, Identifying & responding to social cues, Identifying peer interest, conversation skills, perspective taking and more! Gerson runs parent training, which utilizes the time for activities to destress, and for parents to share their experiences with each other while learning strategies in the process.
2024 Social Skills
Our Social Skills Group is a safe and nurturing environment designed to empower children to develop essential social skills, emotional intelligence, and self-confidence through engaging activities such as cooking, origami, painting, and more.
In our sessions, children will have the opportunity to explore and express themselves creatively while learning valuable interpersonal skills. Through hands-on activities like cooking, they will develop communication, and problem-solving abilities as they work to create delicious meals and strive for independence. Origami sessions will teach patience, focus, and attention to detail while fostering a sense of accomplishment as they create intricate designs from simple paper folds. Painting sessions will encourage self-expression, emotional awareness, and stress relief as children unleash their creativity on canvas.
Our experienced facilitators provide a supportive and encouraging atmosphere. They will guide participants in navigating social interactions, understanding emotions, and building self-esteem through positive reinforcement and constructive feedback.
By participating in our group, children will not only acquire practical social skills but also gain the confidence to navigate various social situations with ease and grace. They will develop a deeper understanding of themselves and others, laying the foundation for healthy relationships and personal growth.
Join us on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment as we embark on exciting adventures in social skills development, emotional exploration, and self-confidence building!
